Carol L. Moss Appointed Chairman, Institutional Relations and Development
At the May 11 Campaign Executive Board meeting, Delos M. Cosgrove, CEO and President, announced that Carol L. Moss has been named Chairman of Institutional Relations and Development for Cleveland Clinic.
Ms. Moss served as Vice Chairman of Institutional Relations and Development at Cleveland Clinic from 2002 until January 2007 when she was appointed acting Chairman. In addition, in 2005 she became Executive Director of Today’s Innovations, Tomorrow’s Healthcare, Cleveland Clinic’s five-year philanthropic campaign to raise $1.25 billion.
In her new role, Ms. Moss will oversee all of Cleveland Clinic’s philanthropic initiatives and capital campaigns, a key component of the health system’s physical expansion and continued medical advancement.
“Cleveland Clinic is enjoying a period in its history characterized by great physical growth, innovation and patient-centered care,” says Dr. Cosgrove. “Philanthropy and development are the engines making it possible for us to further patient care, research and education. Carol Moss, with her depth of experience and talent, will strongly position Cleveland Clinic for continued growth and development.”
Throughout her tenure at Cleveland Clinic, Ms. Moss has developed and executed a number of successful strategies to increase philanthropy to Cleveland Clinic. These initiatives have included involving more physicians and volunteers in philanthropic efforts, developing a highly focused donor centered program, developing a strong case for support with better communication programs, recruiting talented development professionals from across the country, and leading an effort to plan and execute Cleveland Clinic’s first billion dollar campaign.
Last year, Cleveland Clinic attained a record-breaking $173 million in new gifts and pledges from individuals, corporations and foundations, far surpassing the earlier annual average of $31.5 million. The total cash flow to Cleveland Clinic from charitable commitments also reached a record high last year of $95 million.
Today’s Innovations, Tomorrow’s Healthcare: Campaign for Cleveland Clinic is designed to further Cleveland Clinic’s mission of providing world-class patient care, innovative research and outstanding educational programs. Funds raised will support innovative patient care; basic and clinical research; medical and patient education; and physical expansion. At present, the campaign has achieved nearly $870 million in philanthropic commitments.
Prior to joining Cleveland Clinic, Ms. Moss was Assistant Vice President for University Development at The Ohio State University. She also held development positions at Case Western Reserve University, University of Pittsburgh and Slippery Rock University.
She earned her bachelor’s degree in education from Slippery Rock University, and her master’s degree in health and human services from Ohio University. Her professional involvements include the Association of Heathcare Philanthropy, the Council for Advancement and Support of Education, and the Philanthropy Leadership Council.
