The Breathing Association was awarded a $50,000 grant by the Franklin County Commissioners, and we would like to thank them for their continued support in helping us serve thousands of families around Franklin County. It means a lot for our organization!
We’re excited to announce that we have added a new board member to our team, Tiffany Olverson!Tiffany is a Manager of Meter to Cash at NiSource. Her strengths include problem solving, communication skills and organizational proficiency. When asked what her “why” is for joining The Breathing Association Board, she said: “I was recommended by my organization to apply for board membership. The Breathing Association has been an organization who takes great pride in the customers they serve. The mission not only addresses breathing safely, The Breathing Association addresses the issue holistically.”
We look forward to the expertise she will bring to our team!
Mother’s Day has been a very special tradition for our organization for over 100 years. Our founder, Carrie Nelson Black, was a Victorian woman ahead of her time. As a visionary and civic leader, she motivated others to share her passion of caring for the “sick poor,” all while never drawing a paycheck.
A mother of three children, Mrs. Black prevailed upon Governor Judson Harmon in 1911 to issue the first Mother’s Day Proclamation in Ohio. This year, we honor her legacy by raising funds for the populations Mrs. Black deeply cared for!
