I will be out of the office until noon tomorrow. Our daughter Cat is a finalist for Birmingham Business Journal’s CEO of the Year Awards. She is in the Nonprofit/Government category. We will attend the gala tonight.
Cat is the CEO of Children’s Harbor, a nonprofit organization that has been serving seriously ill children since 1989 and has led the organization since April 2020. The organization aims to strengthen the families of seriously ill children through refuge, respite, and resources. These unique, no-cost services are offered at “The Harbor” Family Center, located at Children’s of Alabama in Birmingham, and the Lake Martin retreat facility in Alexander City.
