CarolinaEast Health System hired native New Bernian Jared Brinkley as the executive director of the CarolinaEast Foundation, the charitable arm of the health system.
Brinkley joined CarolinaEast Health System on Monday, May 3 and will precept with outgoing Foundation Director Jill Thompson through June 2021, according to a news release.
Brinkley comes to CarolinaEast following a 10-year tenure in athletic development, most recently as the Director of Major Gifts at the University of Alabama’s Crimson Tide Foundation. We are pleased to have Jared join our team, said CarolinaEast President and CEO Ray Leggett, in the release. He brings a wealth of experience in philanthropy and will be a great addition to an already strong Administration at CarolinaEast that I’m blessed to work with every day.
