The Princeton Area Community Foundation has named Anthony “Skip” Cimino as chair of the board of trustees for a three-year term. Cimino, the executive director of the state Assembly Majority Office, succeeds Carol Herring, retired president of the Rutgers University Foundation.

“We are thankful for Carol’s leadership during her three-year tenure as chair and we are grateful that she will remain on the board,” said Jeffrey M. Vega, president and CEO of the Community Foundation. “We are looking forward to working with Skip, who brings great experience on board governance and is well-known throughout the greater Mercer County community for his leadership.”

The Community Foundation also announced the appointment of officers. Carolyn Sanderson, of the Copper Beech Group at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, was appointed as a vice chair of the board. Meredith Moore, principal of Riverbridge Communications Consulting in Pennington, continues her term as vice chair. Andrew Lieu, principal at Roundview Capital, was appointed as board secretary, and Marguerite Mount, managing director at The Mercadien Group, will continue to serve as treasurer of the board.

The Board appointed three new members: Justina Nixon-Saintil, Rakia Reynolds, and Anne M. VanLent. Three other board members, Patricia Herst, David Scott, and John “Jack” Wallace, left the board after completing their terms of service.

“We’d like to thank Patty, David, and Jack for their commitment to the Community Foundation,” said Vega. “All three have spent many years volunteering at the organization, and we are fortunate that they will continue to volunteer on our committees. We’d also like to welcome our three new board members, whom we are confident will lend great expertise as we work to improve the lives of children and adolescents living in poverty in our region.”
