Miami County Foundation is pleased to announce the appointment of its new Executive Director, Lisa Sargent. “I feel very fortunate to be chosen to help lead and carry on the incredible work of the Miami County Foundation,” said Lisa. “To be entrusted with the foundation’s future, especially in the wake of Natalie’s tremendous contributions, is an honor.” Lisa replaces outgoing director, Natalie Rohlfs, who is beginning a promotional role as Executive Director of Pastoral Services with Our Lady of Fatima Family of Parishes comprised of five Catholic parishes within the region.

 

Lisa is a long-time resident of Troy and most recently owned and operated her own successful marketing and communications consulting business. Before that, she was a member of the executive team at the R.W. Earhart Company, leading the organization’s marketing and customer experience efforts. Lisa and her husband, Luke, have two sons, Mitchell, a junior at Troy High School and Graham, an eighth grader at Troy Junior High.

 

Miami County Foundation’s Board President, Angela Lewis, stated, “We are thrilled to have found Lisa for the Executive Director role. Her keen desire to propel the mission of the MCF forward is exactly what we were looking for to build upon the momentum that Natalie created during her time with us. Lisa’s skills and experience are perfect for elevating our brand awareness, as well as for encouraging engagement from all our partners.  Most importantly, Lisa clearly has a heart for service and is a natural at embodying our creed of People Helping People.”
