SYRACUSE — The United Way of Central New York (UWCNY) board of directors has recently elected Stephanie Crockett as its chair.
Crockett, executive VP and managing director at Mower, has been a UWCNY board member since 2015. She most recently served a two-year period as vice chair.
UWCNY board members work to ensure that the United Way’s efforts align with the greatest needs of the region, and they recently undertook the development of a strategic plan for the organization.
“As a marketing executive, I track efficiencies and measure outcomes against goals daily. Our board is taking that same approach to the strategic counsel we offer United Way of Central New York’s administrative team,” Crockett said in a statement. “I have enormous respect for the work they do to raise money, identify issues, and align with community groups to develop special programs that will support our neighbors and drive meaningful change.”
During the COVID-19 pandemic, UWCNY says it is working with county and city officials, leading the effort to recruit and deploy the staff of volunteers to help distribute goods to those dealing with food insecurity.
At Mower, Crockett leads the Syracuse branch of an independent marketing, advertising, and public-relations agency that also has offices in Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, N.C., Cincinnati, as well as Buffalo, Rochester, Albany, and New York City. She also serves on the board of directors of CenterState CEO and Visit Syracuse.
