According to City News Service, the YMCA of San Diego County announced the appointment of a YMCA veteran as its president and CEO, following an extensive national search that drew 64 candidates into a multi-round selection process.
Todd Tibbits, who has been president and CEO of the YMCA of Greater Charlotte since 2016, will take the helm of the San Diego County operation on Aug. 11.
The YMCA of San Diego County is one of the largest YMCAs in the country, with pre-COVID revenues of more than $200 million, serving nearly 500,000 San Diego County residents and employing more than 5,500 people.
“We are delighted that this exhaustive national search has brought Todd into our YMCA of San Diego County family,” said Kathy Scott, chair of the YMCA of San Diego County board of directors. “Todd is exactly what our Y needs right now. He brings a proven ability to drive strategic growth and operational excellence in intricate and multifaceted organizations, foster and grow community partnerships, and will provide undisputed value to our donors and members.”
The local YMCA faced quite a few setbacks during the pandemic, furloughing 2,000 employees in November and laying off 1,860 of them in January, though some have been rehired.
