Karen Selim Kent WilliamsJim Moloney Richard Leshin

The Coastal Bend Community Foundation is in its 35th year.  Since its inception it has grown to $72.8 million in assets.  But more importantly, it has distributed over $80 million in grants to non-profits and scholarships to students who reside in its seven-county area.  During this time, only four people have served as the Foundation’s CEO and they have all been members of the Rotary Club of Corpus Christi. Please join a panel including Karen Selim (2010 to present), Kent Williams (2005 – 2010), Jim Maloney (1998 – 2004), and Richard Leshin who will represent the tenure of the late Dana Williams (1981 – 1998) as they discuss philanthropy in our community.
