JACKSON
⢠A nonprofit set up to fund Gov. Tate Reevesâ inauguration last year paid nearly $150,000 to a business owned by the governorâs brother and sister-in-law, documents show.
Leigh Reeves served as executive director for the now-dissolved inaugural nonprofit while her company, Snapshot Publishing LLC, was paid for marketing materials, gifts, printing and designs, according to documents filed with the IRS last month.
The filing says Leigh Reeves, who is married to Todd Reeves, did not collect a salary in her director role. In a statement, a spokeswoman for the governor said ânearly allâ of the nonprofitâs payment to Snapshot went directly to materials for the inauguration, and Leigh Reevesâ work planning the events was âlargely voluntary.â
