Tom Durso, author of the 501c3 Files blog, is applauding the appointment of Gail J. McGovern as president and chief executive of the American Red Cross.
Ms. McGovern’s experience as a corporate executive and a volunteer fund raiser at the Johns Hopkins University and other nonprofit groups bodes well for the Red Cross, he writes.
“The Red Cross needs a stabilizing hand at the top, and one with the chops to restore both luster and funding. Gail McGovern sounds like a great person to give it a whack,” he writes.
