Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Phoenix Names New CEO

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Phoenix, serving Phoenix and the West Valley, has appointed Marcia Mintz its new CEO. Mintz was selected by the organization’s board of directors following an extensive national search.

She joins BGCMP with more than 20 years’ nonprofit leadership experience. Most recently, she served as the president of the John C. Lincoln Health Foundation and senior vice president of community benefit programs and services at HonorHealth. She has also served as the chief development officer of Valley of the Sun United Way. Prior to that, she worked in the Bay Area for a multi-use residential and recreational campus and eight years in global program development.

“This is a tremendous opportunity to lead a great organization with a strong name and reputation for empowering youth and teens in our most underserved neighborhoods,” says Mintz. “I look forward to working together with the BGCMP team and board, as well as local leaders and supporters, to ensure a successful future for each and every one of our club members.”

Mintz holds a Master of Business Administration from the University of Arizona, Eller School of Management, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from New York University.

She will replace Amy Gibbons, who is retiring on Dec. 30 after serving BGCMP for 18 years.
