United Way of Southern Nevada hires new donor director
A new hire at the United Way of Southern Nevada will be tasked with rallying supporters from across the valley.
Brett McAnnany was appointed to director of donor relationships in mid-July, the nonprofit announced this week. McAnnany, a Las Vegas native, will be responsible for encouraging investments throughout Southern Nevada through the Tocqueville Society and other giving opportunities, according to a news release. In his role, he will act as a philanthropic advisor to help donors direct their funds.
“As a Las Vegas native, Brett has a passion for serving Southern Nevada that is driven by a family legacy of helping those who need it most,” UWSN Interim President and CEO Kelly Shaw said in a statement. “With lasting relationships built on a foundation of trust, Brett has spent decades building a wide-reaching network, which he will leverage to expand United Way’s impact in our community.”
McAnnany previously worked in the food and beverage industry as a resorts-focused key account director for Southern GLazers Wine and Spirits.
