United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County announced on Wednesday that it has hired Dan Leroy as its next president and CEO. A search committee consisting of board and staff leadership, and led by Walker-Wilson Consulting, conducted a nationwide search after current CEO, David Bailey, announced his retirement following 23 years of service with the organization. 
The contributions that David Bailey has made to our community, and to United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County, are great. I know you agree and I hope you will join me as we set a course to honor his work through the creation of an endowment in his name.
Please take a moment to fill out the form below to let me know if you can join me at one of six exploratory meetings where I will share our plans and seek your input and advice. Light snacks or meals will be provided for breakfast and lunchtime meetings.
In great appreciation -
George Groome
