Seacrest Foundation Moves To Nashville
• The Ryan Seacrest Foundation (RSF), a non-profit dedicated to inspiring youth through entertainment and education-focused initiatives, has relocated its headquarters permanently from Los Angeles to Nashville.
Additionally, a group of top entertainment advisors has been appointed to help support the Foundation’s mission: Scott Borchetta, President, CEO & Founder, Big Machine Label Group; Nicki Farag, Executive Vice President, Promotion, Def Jam Recordings; John Ivey, President, CHR Programming Strategy at iHeartMedia & PD of KIIS-FM/Los Angeles; Allison Kaye, President, SB Projects; Debra O’Connell, President & GM, WABC-TV/New York; and Gary Spangler, Executive Vice President, Promotion, Republic Records.
These high profile RSF industry advisors will help the Foundation expand its impact and enhance its multi-media programming in their state-of-the-art media broadcast centers — Seacrest Studios — located in children’s hospitals across the country. Advisors will work with the Seacrest family and the Foundation staff to help generate awareness of its mission, bring celebrity talent to visit patients at Seacrest Studios, as well as drive development and fundraising opportunities.
“We’re honored to have assembled a talented group of industry executives, who have been generously supporting our Foundation for years, to join us officially as advisors to help us advance our efforts and elevate our network of Seacrest Studios,” said Meredith Seacrest, Executive Director/COO, Ryan Seacrest Foundation. “We’re also excited to call Nashville our new home, which isn’t far from our Seacrest Studio at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.
