Thompson to retire from Coshocton Foundation

| January 26, 2015

COSHOCTON – Kathy Thompson has announced her impending retirement as executive director of the Coshocton Foundation, a position she has held since 2007.

Prior to assuming the position at the Coshocton Foundation, Thompson served eight years as Coshocton County Commissioner and also directed three record-breaking campaigns for the United Way of Coshocton County. She is a graduate of Coshocton High School and Miami University, where she earned Phi Beta Kappa honors.

The Coshocton Foundation was established in 1966 through the will of Adolph Golden, owner of a local women’s clothing store. Since then, the organization’s assets have topped $31 million, an exceptional amount for a community of Coshocton’s size. Through the years, grants totaling in excess of $7 million have been invested in local non-profit organizations and schools through the Foundation’s unrestricted fund and its 144 restricted funds.

Resumes for the position of Executive Director of the Coshocton Foundation will be accepted through Friday, Feb. 13, and may be mailed to P.O. Box 55, Coshocton, OH 43812, or delivered to the Foundation office at 220 S. Fourth St. in Coshocton.
