United Way Worldwide, the world’s largest privately-funded nonprofit, has tapped Suzanne McCormick, now president and CEO of United Way Suncoast, to become its U.S. President, based on her 25 years of innovative leadership in advancing community causes. On July 31, McCormick will become U.S. President of United Way Worldwide, which is engaged in nearly 1,800 communities across 40+ countries. She’ll be the guiding force for almost 1,200 local and state United Ways in the U.S., as they transform to agile and digital organizations in the fight for the health, education and financial stability of every person in every community. McCormick will replace Mary Sellers, who has served in the role since 2017.

Carrie Zeiss, Chief Strategy & Operating Officer of UWS, will be appointed Interim CEO as United Way Suncoast conducts a national search for a new CEO. David Walker, long-time Board and Executive Committee member, will lead the Search Committee effort, expected to be completed by year’s end.
