Atlanta Cancer Care Foundation, Pebble Tossers and Kids on the Move for Success on Non Profits Radio

Mitzy Futro
Atlanta Cancer Care Foundation
An attorney with more than 14 years of experience in management and support of both charities and associations (including 10 years in senior leadership), I am proud to be a nonprofit and association specialist. My core belief is that these organizations can best achieve their mission if they have strong management and leadership, and I strive to provide both.

In 2015, I became Executive Director of the Atlanta Cancer Care Foundation (ACCF), leading the fundraising, administration, governance, communications, outreach and planning efforts of this locally-focused 501(c)(3) charity. ACCF provides fast, flexible, compassionate financial assistance to adult cancer patients throughout the 17-county Metro Atlanta area who are struggling as a result of the financial toxicity associated with the disease, and I am proud to be part of an organization that pays more than $200,000 in bills each year, so that patients can focus on what matters most - their treatment and recovery.

Topics:
What is financial toxicity, and how does it impact cancer patients?
How does the Atlanta Cancer Care Foundation help?
What makes ACCF different from other organizations?
What type of people does ACCF help?
What is the assistance process like?
How can people help?

Antoinette Tuff
Kids on the Move for Success

WHAT I DO: As an "accidental hostage negotiator" where I saved more than 850 lives in the only school shooting that ended without injury or death, I took this experience & now teach "Tuff Tactics" & crisis management techniques to audiences nationwide to keep everyone safer.

MY STORY: On August 19, 2013, I was a school bookkeeper, severely depressed that my husband of 33 years had recently left and I was facing the daunting challenges of raising a son with multiple disabilities as a single Mom. On August 20, 2013. I used my experiences with challenging life issues to successfully convince an armed gunman who entered the Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning Academy to give me his AK-47. This is the only school active shooter situation in the US that ended without death or injury to school students, faculty, parents or the shooter himself.

Since that time, I have been sharing my story which has been turned into a movie (Faith Under Fire: The Antoinette Tuff Story) and a book (Prepared For a Purpose) with audiences nationwide where I share how my everyday crisis management techniques with Tuff Tactics & how they apply to a wide variety situations, both large and small. I am passionate about connecting with and inspiring businesses and public agencies to disarm their upset customers.
