Meet Amy Driscoll: A Beacon of Hope for the McCourt Foundation
As we celebrate the dedication of our supporters, we want to shine the spotlight on Amy Driscoll, who has been with us for over 15 years. Amy’s journey with the McCourt Foundation began with attending our annual gala and grew into a significant advisory and event organization role. She’s been a part of several events, including the spirited Tour de South Shore and our fun-filled walks. From cheering on fellow participants to sharing her own story of resilience and determination, Amy has been a constant presence in our community.
But what sets Amy apart is not just her dedication to the cause, but her ability to bring others along with her. Despite a knee injury that led her to shift from running to walking, Amy continues to be an inspiration by demonstrating that determination knows no barriers. Whether it’s pushing a friend’s nephew with spina bifida in his cart or welcoming new faces to our events, Amy embodies the spirit of community and inclusivity that is at the heart of the McCourt Foundation.
We’re grateful for Amy’s tireless dedication and her ability to bring others along with her, making each event a gathering of friends and family that goes beyond just a fundraiser. Her impact on our community is immeasurable, and we’re honored to have her as a part of our team.
