We're thrilled to welcome two exceptional leaders to the ZERO Prostate Cancer team: Angie Hawk as Senior Director of Corporate Partnerships and AJ W. as Director of Corporate Partnerships. Angie brings a wealth of nonprofit leadership experience from her role as a major gift officer at Thomas More University. But her connection to our cause is personal—her husband's prostate cancer diagnosis four years ago has given her a deep understanding of the impact this disease has on patients and their loved ones. AJ's background includes experience as a U.S. Embassy bodyguard in the United States Marine Corps and as a NASCAR business executive. As a prostate cancer survivor himself, AJ is driven by a powerful combination of professional expertise and personal mission. Together, Angie and AJ will spearhead our efforts to expand corporate support, build meaningful partnerships, and accelerate our progress toward ending prostate cancer. 🎗️ #ZEROProstateCancer #EndProstateCancer #WelcomeToTheTeam #NonprofitLeadership
