President's Corner: Making an Impact
One of the many advantages to my position as FWHCC President is that I get to assist and partner with great Fort Worth organizations like Susan G. Komen. This past Valentine's Day, I had the honor of being a designated "Pink Tie Guy" along with my awesome partner, Gabriel Starling, of Tough Stars Give Back. The goal was to create a group of gentlemen who are community leaders and fathers, husbands, brothers and sons, who are champions of Susan G. Komen Greater Fort Worth and dedicated to making an impact in their community.
The result is that Team Tough Stars Give Back took first place by raising more than $3,200 within a 24-hour campaign. Better yet, the entire event raised almost $40,000 for our community. Congratulations to Susan G. Komen and all my fellow "Pink Tie Guys" and a special thank you to all that donated.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in our area. This is an example of Fort Worthians coming together to make a greater impact.
