Jim Horn has begun his term as Chair of the Board of Directors for the YMCA of Greater Brandywine.

He succeeds Board Chair Ken Goddu, who passed the gavel to his successor after completing his two-year term. Horn has been a member of the Y’s Board of Directors for nine years.

Horn is the President and CEO of The Tri-M Group, a multimillion-dollar electrical solutions company, where he began as a designer/estimator in 1983 and worked his way to President in 1995. In 2016, the YMCA of Greater Brandywine honored The Tri-M Group with its Community Partner Award for its commitment to the Y’s mission and values, as well as its support of the Y’s initiatives that strengthen the community.

The Tri-M Group has supported the Y with donated electrical services, in addition to encouraging its employees to volunteer with the Y.

“The mission of the Y is something we firmly believe in,” said Horn. “When it comes to families who otherwise can’t afford to go to the Y and the financial assistance (the Y) provides, it’s something that’s really impressed us over the years.”

“I am grateful to Ken for his service and guidance as Chair of our Board,” said Denise Day, President and CEO of the YMCA of Greater Brandywine, “and I am excited that he will continue as a member of our board. We welcome Jim as Chair and are very appreciative of the leadership he will provide in extending the mission of the Y.”
