    THE NATIONAL POLICE ATHLETIC/ACTIVITIES LEAGUES, INC. (“NATIONAL PAL”) ANNOUNCES OUR NEW CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, DUANE KINGHORN AND co-CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER/CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, JULIE REDCAY

     

     

    Charlotte, North Carolina (January 25, 2023) – The National Police Athletic & Activities Leagues (NPAL) board of directors is pleased to announce that it has named Duane Kinghorn as its new CEO and Julie Redcay as its new co-CEO & COO effective January 2023.

     

    The Board of Directors of National PAL is extremely pleased to welcome these two highly intelligent and competent individuals. They both bring unique skillsets to the helm. We know that National PAL is in excellent hands under their direction. We look forward to a great future ahead for National PAL, our member chapters and the youth we serve. 

     

    Kinghorn had the fortune to work at two prominent and historic financial services institutions the past 40 years, starting with Merrill Lynch in 1984 and recently retiring from Citibank as Managing Director, Head of US Wealth Platforms and Services for the US Consumer Wealth business. 

     

    During his career, Kinghorn managed operations, services and remote sales, business technology, digital wealth platform developments, reengineering/transformation programs, vendor relationships and a wide range of products and services. These diverse roles have given him opportunities to build strong relationships and develop a broad set of experiences and skills, allowing him to deliver superior results to investment and banking clients. 

     

    Kinghorn holds a Masters in Business Administration from Monmouth University and B.A. degree in Criminal Justice from Rowan University. In addition to holding various industry security licenses, he was previously a member of the Pershing (BNY Mellon Company) Client Advisory Board, President of Citigroup Life Agency LLC., attended The Wharton School of Business Securities Industry Institute program and completed Executive Education sponsored by Citi and the Columbia Business School.

     

    “Now I’m looking at the next chapter, giving back – which has always been a priority for me and my family. I am looking forward to this exciting opportunity to make a difference in a completely new way, one that benefits the lives of our children and communities. I have been associated with the PAL family for over 20 years in my local community and now will be expanding that role nationally. I am truly honored to be named Chief Executive Officer of NPAL partnering with Julie.”

     

    Redcay, being an experienced national nonprofit compliance leader and children’s advocate, brings a wealth of leadership experience and a passion for breaking generational poverty through increasing the health and successful pathways for children.

     

    Redcay comes to NPAL from her role as Senior Director of Federal Grants at Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, a national youth serving nonprofit organization committed to supporting and growing youth mentoring opportunities across the U.S. During her five years at BBBSA, she spearheaded multiple federal audits with no findings and stewarded more than $54 million in federal funding to serve more than 49,000 children nationwide. 

     

    Prior to Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, Redcay spent nine years at Hillsborough Community College (HCC), working in both Strategic Planning and Grants, where she led the 10-year economic impact audit and leading federal, state, and local funding for the fifth largest community college in Florida's State College System that serves more than 42,000 students each year at its five campuses.

     

    Redcay holds a B.A. degree in Sociology from the University of Florida, a Juris Doctor, and Master of Laws in Advocacy degrees from Stetson University.

     

    “I could not be more honored and grateful to accept the position as co-CEO/COO of this well-established youth serving organization that works to build possibilities for children through mentoring, youth leadership, and building relationships between law enforcement, children, and the communities they serve. My goal in leading this organization is to build upon the successes and achievements of the 100 plus years.”
