I am a member of Executives with Heart for 2026.  Even though I have set a goal of $2,500, I personally would like to raise a minimum of $5,000., for many reasons. 

My “WHY” is not only for how this disease has impacted family and friends, but how it creeps into homes without warning, forever changing lives in seconds.

The phrase "Life happens when you're busy making other plans," is real.  The money raised in Lexington stays in Kentucky through local reaearch grants, community-led health programs, and state-level advocacy efforts. 

No amount is too small or too large. If you have made a personal donation in memory of a family member or friend who has passed away from this disease or support another organization, THANK YOU.   

With Heart, 

Abby Vaughn
