Summary

Broetje Family Trust (the Trust) is an association of three foundations collectively stewarding a faith-led family legacy through three areas of practice: Servant Leadership, Community Building, and Philanthropy. The Trust commits itself to 1) live and teach the ethic of Christ-centered service through servant leadership development; 2) nurture and create new communities of healing and mutual service locally and internationally; and 3) place resources at the service of those communities.

Officially established in 2019, the roots of the Broetje Family Trust’s work stretch back to the establishment of Broetje Orchards in 1968 by Ralph and Cheryl Broetje in Benton City, WA. The business would expand significantly over the next five decades and touch the lives of countless migrant workers and their families, whose dedication contributed to the business’ success. Throughout this time, the Broetje family has answered God’s call to serve the community through the creation of various non-profit initiatives including the Center for Sharing, Vista Hermosa Foundation, and Jubilee Foundation respectively. Following the 2018 sale of Broetje Orchards, the various non-profit initiatives were brought together under the umbrella of the Broetje Family Trust.

Looking to the future, Broetje Family Trust seeks an inaugural Executive Director to steward a family legacy of “bearing fruit that will last” (John 15:16 NIV). For a faith-centered servant leader who can articulate a vision for the Trust that extends Ralph and Cheryl’s legacy of service, ensure effective and transparent governance, and represent the Trust and its programs effectively across the region and the globe, the Executive Director role is an exceptional opportunity for lasting impact.
