CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments


A board of 31 community and business leaders governs Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee. They are responsible for setting policies and procedures and overseeing the financial stability of the organization. As President and CEO of the Food Bank, I report directly to the Board of Directors. I also provide leadership to our Leadership Team which consists of our CFO, COO, Chief Development & Marketing Officer, Vice President of Community Impact and VP of Human Resources. Second Harvest uses a number of committees to help provide strategic guidance to the organization. Various advisory committees comprised of board and community members assist and help guide all departments within the organization. The food bank is very fortunate to have an active and dedicated group of volunteers that serve on these committees and provide outstanding leadership and guidance. This year, leadership continues a focus on increasing the capacity to distribute more food to more people experiencing food insecurity in our service area. Support from community volunteers, leaders and donors remains absolutely critical as we continue to fight hunger in Middle and West Tennessee.
