10.15.24 | TAX Day is here! The final day to file your taxes for 2023, and I spent the afternoon at EY, alongside United Way of the Greater Triangle. EY, a global leader in assurance, tax, transaction, and advisory services, helps build trust in capital markets and economies worldwide. What an honor to connect with their incredible team as part of United Way’s 10 to Watch initiative, where I had the opportunity to share the impactful work of Empower All Inc. Nonprofit work is no easy feat. It’s filled with passion, dedication, and countless hours spent addressing the challenges we see in our communities. It requires belief from others in our mission, vision, and the willingness to invest—whether through financial support or human capital. While the journey can feel heavy or even “TAXing” (pun intended ??), it’s moments like these, when your efforts are recognized and amplified, that remind you why you keep going. Special thanks to Nadia Trevizo, MA & Kelsey Camarena for making space for me to share the heart of Empower All Inc. Your support means everything! #EmpowerAll #NonprofitLeadership #CommunityImpact #Collaboration #EY #UnitedWay #10ToWatch #TAXDay
