Community service is ingrained in the DNA of Dillard. It was at a Memphis Rotary meeting in 2000 that founder John Dillard entrusted the company to Chris Bird. John passed down more than a legacy of excellence and customer service — he further fueled the spark and commitment in Chris to making a positive impact on the community.
That dedication to community development is unwavering. CEO Chris Bird actively participates in various church and community organizations. He serves on the Memphis Rotary Club Board, the Memphis Heritage Board, and the Regional One Health Foundation Board of Directors. Further, he participates in the Calvary Episcopal Church Vestry and the NFIB State Leadership Council, among others.
Likewise, John Rountree, Chief Revenue Officer at Dillard, is involved in numerous initiatives. John serves on the Board of Directors for Jackson State Community College, as well as on the Board of Directors for the Ronald McDonald House.
