KMF Gets New Executive Director
Written by Jarrett Jacobs on 8 January 2026
The Kateri Memorial Foundation (KMF) has promoted from within to fill the position of Executive Director. Skye Thomas will now take on that role, after joining the KMF back in April 2025.
In a release, the KMF describes Thomas as “an engaged community member with a strong commitment to the mission and future of the Foundation”. Thomas played a key role in coordinating and managing volunteers for last year’s Charity Golf Tournament, which the Foundation says demonstrates strong leadership and adaptability. She has also been the owner and operator of GIA Kahnawake for the past 8 years, honing skills the KMF hopes will help support its continued growth.
“I feel extremely grateful and humbled for this opportunity” said Thomas. “The foundation does really important work within the health care sector and to support health care, so I’m really proud and excited to step into this new role and to continue serving the community”.
Every year, the Foundation raises nearly 3-quarters of a million dollars for charity through events like Tso-Tso’s Duck Race, Karonhiaráhstha’s Winter Wonderland, the Golden Ticket, and the Charity Golf Tournament.
