Jack Lloyd to lead Northwest Community Hospital Foundation board
Jack A. Lloyd, regional president of Harris N.A. in Palatine and Rolling Meadows, has been appointed chair of the Northwest Community Hospital’s Foundation’s board of trustees.
Lloyd, a foundation trustee since 2007, said he looks forward to assuming a stronger leadership role in raising funds for the Arlington Heights hospital.
“I hope to assist in making a great hospital even better,” he said.
Lloyd oversees 10 Harris retail locations and previously served as senior vice president and national sales director for Harris Private Bank.
He attended the University of Notre Dame, receiving a bachelor’s degree in management and finance, and played on the school’s 1973 national championship football team. He also participated in the MBA program at Northwestern University.
David Ungurean, foundation vice president, said the organization is fortunate to have Lloyd at the helm.
“Like other health care facilities across the nation, our hospital faces economic challenges that make philanthropy more important than ever in securing the best health services for our community,” he said. “Jack’s business expertise and genuine dedication to the hospital bring tremendous value to our initiatives.”
Lloyd’s commitment to the hospital is rooted in his own history. Raised in the area, he remembers relying on it for his childhood stitches, his father’s cancer treatment and the birth of his daughter, Joslin.
His involvements in business, civic, church and school programs include being vice president of board development for the Harper College Education Foundation, president of the Northwest Cultural Council and a member of the executive council of Shelter Inc.
He lives in Palatine with his wife, Linda, and their younger daughters, Joslin and Jamie. Two adult children, Brad and Jaclyn, live in Florida.
Established in 1981, the foundation serves as the fundraising arm of the hospital, seeking donations to help the hospital invest in facilities, technology and community outreach. For more information about the NCH Foundation, visit nch.org/foundation.
