Veronica Brady is a longtime champion for philanthropy in our community.  

“Much of my career was focused in finance and wealth management, helping families design a blueprint to guide their charitable giving” says Brady. “I love connecting generous donors to causes in our community—and building strategies to strengthen nonprofit organizations.”  

Following a 25-year career with SunTrust, Brady served as the Senior Vice President for Philanthropy at Gulf Coast Community Foundation, leading annual growth in funds, gifts, and donor engagement.  She most recently served as the Director of Advancement at The Bay Park Conservancy, helping to raise the initial $25 million for the new public park on Sarasota Bay. 

Now Brady has taken some time to focus on a broader group of interests. With partner Keith Monda—a retired President and COO of Coach Inc—they stay engaged with programs they helped implement, including All Faiths Food Bank’s annual “Campaign Against Summer Hunger,” early literacy program “Reading Recovery,” and Monda Kids SWIM, a program that provides water safety lessons to second graders in Sarasota County. The couple also shares their advice and support with a long list of organizations–most focused on children and education. 

“We believe in giving kids a chance to succeed regardless of their background,” says Brady. “With Monda Kids SWIM (Safe Water Instruction Matters), not only are we providing water safety lessons, but for some kids, we are helping them overcome a fear. That opens the door for them to face other challenges in life.”

Brady also knows that the nonprofit sector needs support not only financially, but with charitable guidance and makes herself available when asked. “I’ve had such wonderful experiences in my career and volunteer efforts—if any of it can assist another donor or nonprofit with their decision making, I’m happy to connect.”
