Ascension St. Vincent's Foundation is excited to announce the appointment of our new president, Patrick Henry II. Patrick began his new role at our organization in late June.

He brings more than 13 years of successful fundraising experience leading development campaigns for nonprofit and academic medical centers including UF Health Shands, the American Heart Association and the University of South Florida Foundation.

Most recently, Patrick spearheaded multiple fundraising programs at UF Health that resulted in millions of dollars raised. He helped secure the second-largest individual gift ever for UF Health’s cancer center. Prior to UF Health, Patrick worked with the University of South Florida and Morsani College of Medicine leading annual giving and major gift programs from 2011 until 2016. He also spent time with the American Heart Association as the association’s Heart Walk director in Tampa Bay. 

“I’m thrilled to join the Foundation and lead efforts to raise funds and awareness for the advanced medical treatment offered at Ascension St. Vincent facilities,” Patrick said. “Helping care for individuals and families who are impoverished or underinsured is an exciting aspect of our mission and our community outreach.”

Patrick’s wife of eight years, Lindsay, is an elementary school teacher and will be teaching 4^th grade this fall at Assumption Catholic School where their three children will attend. The family lives in the San Marco/St. Nicholas area and attends Assumption Catholic Church.

Welcome to ASVF, Patrick!
