CENTER CITY, Minn. (May 11, 2018) – After an extensive nationwide search, the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation has tapped an accomplished Chicago fundraising executive to be its new chief development officer.

Moira A. McGinley will join the national nonprofit addiction treatment leader's executive team on June 6, after having most recently led development efforts for Presence Health, a large healthcare organization based in Chicago.
"This is a key leadership position for us," said Mark Mishek, president and CEO of the Minnesota-headquarted Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation, which has 17 sites nationwide and will celebrate its 70th anniversary next year. "Moira's proven track record of cultivating connective relationships with donors, physicians, community members and organizational leaders will help us engage more people in our mission to be a force of healing and hope for individuals, families and communities affected by addiction."
The Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is on the front lines of a national effort to confront addiction and end an unprecedented opioid overdose epidemic that has killed hundreds of thousands of Americans over the past two decades. Its Comprehensive Opioid Response with Twelve Steps (COR-12) treatment framework—integrating lifesaving medications with life-transforming therapies—is influencing practices throughout health care. The organization also is leading efforts to expand access to quality addiction treatment and to better integrate that care within the rapidly evolving mainstream health care system.
"In this critical time, with the need for help only growing, philanthropy can play a pivotal role in the future of the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation," McGinley said. "I look forward to supporting the mission and increasing the fundraising profile for this esteemed organization."
McGinley has 20 years of experience in annual giving, strategic planning, donor engagement and major gifts. At Presence Health, which has 12 hospitals, 27 senior service facilities and a university, McGinley and her team exceeded the organization's fundraising goal by 18 percent in 2015 and 13 percent in 2016. She previously served in leadership positions at the Resurrection Development Foundation, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metropolitan Chicago, the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago Foundation and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
