United Way Foundation board announces new officers, members

The United Way of Martin County Foundation recently installed a fresh set of officers ready to lead the organization through the next fiscal year.

Incoming president Theodore Brown, senior wealth management executive at Northern Trust, will replace outgoing president Leo Clancy, who during the past year accomplished much by way of spearheading the inaugural Frances Langford Humanitarian Award luncheon that recognized Bob and Carol Weissman for their philanthropy and launched the ambitious $3 Million in 5 Years Endowment Fund campaign.

"I want to thank my board colleagues for their many contributions to the Foundation's mission and for helping make my term as president so successful," said Clancy. "I complete my term knowing that my successor, Theodore Brown, comes fully prepared with a terrific mix of experience and leadership.

Other UW Foundation officers joining Brown include Chuck White, Jr., vice president; Robert Thomas, CPA, Treasurer; and Jim Vojcsik, secretary. The UW Foundation is also welcoming two new members to its board, Chuck Cleaver and Brian Powers.

"Throughout its history, the United Way Foundation has relied on the generosity of people who care and believe in making a difference in the lives of others less fortunate," said Margaret May Damen, planned giving director at United Way. "This tradition continues with the launch of the 3 in 5 Endowment Fund Campaign to raise $3 million dollars in the next five years.

"Whatever a person's reason might be to leave a lasting legacy, they will find the United Way Foundation's Endowment Fund to be a trusted fiscal agent to carry forward their voice, values and vision efficiently and effectively."
