April Hunt
Communications and Digital Strategist
April is a proud Michigan State Spartan (Go Green!) who grew up on Michigan’s east side. A former journalist, she’s built her career in various forms of communications. She most recently spent over a decade as the senior editor for Grand Rapids Kids, the flagship brand under HeyMichigan.com. Here she gained extensive experience in brand building, web publishing, social media strategy and project management. She joined the Foundation team in March.
She believes strongly in honesty, candor and service, which makes it easy for her to promote the legacies of Jerry and Betty Ford.
When not in the office, April mentors middle school girls and is the director’s assistant for her kids’ over-the-top elementary musicals.
