New board chair, vice chair elected for $441.09 million foundation

What do a former 30-year McDonald’s Corp. executive and the president and CEO of the Economic Development Corp. of Sarasota County have in common? They have new roles on the Gulf Coast Community Foundation board of directors. 

The Venice-based nonprofit board elected David Green, the McDonald’s executive, as chair and Lisa Krouse of the EDC as vice chair. They began serving their one-year term July 1. The new board roles come as CEO Mark Pritchett announces he will retire, effective 2023.
