Nashville, Tenn. – Nashville CARES is pleased to appoint Ken Hinman as their new Development Director.

Hinman is a passionate and strategic results-oriented leader with 30 years experience in business development, marketing strategies, brand leadership, product development and turnarounds.  He has worked with Ingram Design Collective as President and CEO; Talalay Global as Global Marketing Officer, Jamison Bedding and Hartman Luggage as Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing and most recently as the Founder and President of Hinman Consulting, and Compass Executives as a Senior Coach and Advisor. 

“Joining Nashville CARES gives me the opportunity to utilize my career experiences to help stop the HIV epidemic in Middle Tennessee,” says Hinman. “The opportunity to raise much-needed funds for our amazing programs to help those in need excites me and gives me the ability to give back.”

Hinman has a strong commitment to community service and has served on several boards in various positions including Learning Matters, Habitat ReStore,  First Steps, Youth Courts, Make a Wish Foundation and Vestry of St. Timothy’s Episcopal. He graduated from the University of Mississippi with his Bachelor’s in Business Administration.  


About Nashville CARES: 

Our Mission: Nashville CARES mission is to end the HIV epidemic in Middle Tennessee. We work to achieve this through education, advocacy and support for those at risk for or living with HIV.

Our vision is a community where HIV infections are rare, and when they do occur, everyone with HIV/AIDS has access to the care, treatment and support to achieve optimal health and self-sufficiency without stigma or discrimination.

Last year Nashville CARES served more than 50,000 Middle Tennesseans infected and affected by HIV/AIDS including: HIV prevention education to more than 29,000 youth and adults, more than 10,000 FREE confidential HIV tests, and essential support services to 3,400 men, women and children living with the disease.
