Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "Passion rebuilds the world for the youth. It makes all things alive and significant."
In recognition of Women’s History Month, INO.com has made a donation on behalf of some wonderful, young women in our community that are passionately fundraising for organizations that are very important to them.
We salute their efforts, their hearts and their compassion to help make a difference one dollar at a time.
Ashely Welty, Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America
Ashley has been raising money for CCFA for the last 3 years and is recognized consistently as a top fundraiser for our region. Not only does Ashley and her mother suffer from this disease, but she fundraises in honor of a friend who passed away from Crohn’s complications. Learn more about Ashley’s fundraising project, “Racing for a CURE” and the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America.
Karen Murphy, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
Karen has been fundraising and supporting events for the CF Foundation in honor of the son of a family friend who has this horrible disease. She serves on the committee of the DC Brewer’s Ball, a major fundraising event for CF in our region. Learn more about the Brewer’s Ball or the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Casey Thompson, National Multiple Sclerosis Society
Casey was recently diagnosed with MS at the age of 27 after experiencing months of strange symptoms. Initially reluctant about being public with her disease, Casey has decided to instead become an advocate for MS, fundraise to support research and walk in local events. Learn more about Casey's MS Walk and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
