With two decades of hands-on experience with non-profits, Parsons has a proven track record of driving organizational growth and enhancing cultures. Her appointment to the new role was announced on August 16, 2024.
Prior to joining the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Lowcountry, Parsons held several key leadership positions at United Way of the Coastal Empire.
