Rotarians Kristin Aspin and Angela Ringler Take on new key roles at the Ashland County Community Foundation (ACCF).
At ACCF's annual appreciation meeting, Director Jim Cutright (Cutty) highlighted two members of the Rotary Club of Ashland.
Angela Ringler will be joining the ACCF Board of Directors.
Cutty had this to say about Angela,
“Angela is someone with whom I’ve worked closely in the past, both on the Chamber board of directors and when the Ashland Young Professionals group was initially being formed, as ACCF provided a seed-money grant to help launch that initiative. I was really impressed with her intellect and thoughtful contributions to those efforts, and encouraged her to step into the leadership queue, as I knew she was quite capable. At ACCF, we’re looking to develop young leaders for board leadership, so she was a natural fit to help guide our organization into the future.”
Angela states, "Ashland County Community Foundation makes a huge impact in our community in many ways. I’ve seen them grow and add to the team and assets in the years I’ve been involved in the community and aware of all they do. I was honored when Cutty and Kristin asked my to join their board! They are leaving a lasting legacy and I’m excited to be part of that for a small time. I am thrilled to be a part of the board through the transitional years ahead, and can’t wait to watch ACCF continue to grow."
At the same meeting, Cutty announced that Rotarian Kristin Aspin will become the CEO-Designate as Cutty announced his retirement three years from now.
Cutty states,
“I’ve had the privilege of working with Kristin for the past 13 years and have observed her growth into the strong leader that she is today. If you’ve worked with her on any type of project, you know that her ambitious vision to improve our community is matched only by her meticulous execution.
Her selfless service beyond her day job, coupled with her outstanding credentials, has resulted in several well-earned recognitions and awards. At ACCF, she is responsible for many of our signature programs, and as a result, our board of trustees has identified her as my obvious successor, adding to her current Chief Operating Officer title, ‘CEO-Designate’, in line to assume the CEO role in July 2028.”
Kristin added,
"I’m honored to be named CEO-Designate of Ashland County Community Foundation and look forward to continuing the great legacy of impacting our Ashland County community. I’m excited to lead and strategically implement vision, working with board, staff, donors, nonprofits and other partners, to ensure a vibrant future for the communities we serve."
