Jim Hart Award Winners

2015

Ron Loftis

Ron Loftis Jr. (GSW 1969), served as the treasurer of the Foundation for 25 years. During the 2011 budget crisis that threatened to shut down the Governor's School, donations to the Foundation increased by over 200%. Ron was responsible for managing the Foundation's finances during this unprecedented increase. He oversaw all  financial matters and reporting functions for the Foundation board, providing updates on rapidly changing budgetary and political matters. Ron Loftis' vision, advice and suggestions have been critical to the Foundation's success.

For those and many other reasons, the NC Governor’s School Foundation is proud to honor Ron as a Jim Hart Governor’s School Champion Award winner for 2015.
