The Melville Family Foundation (MFF), a nonprofit based in Dallas dedicated to helping families achieve food security, academic excellence and economic stability, is welcoming five new members to its board of directors.

MFF is dedicated to helping families thrive in a world in which income inequality has made achieving the American Dream—or even merely surviving—seem like an unattainable goal. The safety nets designed to help people in need have been eliminated or are in grave danger.

The five new board members are:

  • Adrienne A. Mosley is Vice President and Deputy General Counsel of PepsiCo Food North America. She provides legal counsel and leads teams to enable growth initiatives across sales, marketing, innovation, strategy and global insights. In 2022, she was named to Diversity First’s Top 100 Women in Business list. In 2021, Mosley was given the National Diversity & Leaderships’ Top 50 General Counsel honor, and in 2019, she was named to Savoy Magazine’s Most Influential Women in Corporate America. She serves on the boards of The Judge Alexander Williams, Jr. Center for Education, Justice and Ethics as well as The Storehouse of Collin County.
  • Aracely Moreno-Mosier is the Senior Director of Commercial Marketing for PepsiCo Demand Accelerator, where she leads customer marketing for national and regional accounts. She serves as the Frito-Lay executive sponsor for Adelante, a Hispanic/Latinx resource group within PepsiCo, where she has also led the Hispanic Month events for PepsiCo National. Moreno-Mosier has participated in executive panels both outside and internally at PepsiCo, and she speaks on the importance of DE&I within the corporate functions. Recently, she was accepted into DFW Hispanic 100, a network focused on increased participation of Hispanic women in executive roles, diversity procurement and social issues.
  • Mark Rogers is co-founder of Lux Ice, LLC, a brand of crystal-clear, tasteless ice spheres that elevate the aesthetics and taste of any drink. He is an experienced finance and operations executive in both large corporate environments as well as mid-level growth and startup companies. His finance experience includes roles as Division Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer of Frito-Lay’s Foodservice division. Rogers was also Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of UR Holdings, a construction company acquired by Katerina, Inc.
  • Nate H. Jenkins is a retired ExxonMobil corporate executive with nearly 40 years of leadership and finance experience. Before retiring in 2021, he developed and led the inaugural Global Finance Leadership Culture Organization for the corporation, responsible for training and onboarding 5,000-plus employees. Jenkins has held several leadership positions in Audit, Accounting, Reporting, Financial/Business Advisory and Corporate Governance Organization, leading teams ranging from 50 to 800-plus employees with annual budgets as high as $50 million.
  • Vincent Bush is a retired Senior Director of Engineering for Frito-Lay after more than 30 years with the company. In his last role, he was chiefly responsible for factory automation and production flexibility for all snack-food manufacturing plants supporting PepsiCo North American supply-chain operations. He serves on the board for Mary Crowley Cancer Research and has participated in disaster-relief efforts and as a crew chief with Habitat for Humanity of Collin County. For the last two years, Bush has been a volunteer with the Melville Family Foundation, serving as an Uplift Saturday mentor, Operating Committee member and point contact for the Toyota partnership.

Each quarter, the foundation partners with the North Texas Food Bank to offer a health and wellness event where free fresh produce is given to each family. And since proper nutrition plays such an important role in health and disease prevention, representatives from the USDA’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) are present at the event to assist families interested in signing up to receive assistance in the form of food stamps.
