Scott Senatore, president of ECU Health Foundation, has been included in the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy (AHP) 2019 40 Under 40 list.

The 40 Under 40 program is designed to recognize the future leaders within the health care philanthropy community. AHP is honoring these 40 young professionals because they are shaping the future of the health care development industry. Collectively, they are changing the world—one campaign at a time.

“These honorees are part of a select group of health care philanthropy who have demonstrated impressive career achievements, deep community involvement and the potential to be a leader in our profession for years to come,” said Alice Ayres, AHP president & CEO.

Senatore joined the Foundation in June 2016 and, with the Foundation team, has participated in raising nearly $46 million toward the $50 million goal for the ECU Health Cancer Care Campaign. The Foundation team has continued to raise funds for James and Connie Maynard Children’s Hospital and other system initiatives supporting its mission. Additionally, the Foundation team has enhanced marketing and communications efforts and has developed a more targeted approach to community relations.

Senatore will be recognized at the 2019 AHP Annual International Conference Oct. 23-26 in Washington, D.C. Recognition events will include an invitation-only breakfast and award dinner on Thursday, Oct. 24, during the conference.

“During his time at the ECU Health Foundation, Scott has provided strategic leadership and direction for the team. He has proven that he has the skills and experience necessary to lead and enhance our philanthropic efforts throughout the region,” said Dr. Michael Waldrum, CEO of ECU Health. “This recognition is well-deserved, and we are lucky to have him as part of the ECU Health family.”
