Support for Sally Clark (GoFundMe Goal Reached!)
We are incredibly grateful to share that the $10,000 goal for the GoFundMe campaign has been achieved, and we sincerely appreciate your generosity.
As many of you know, our cherished partner, Sally Clark from True IP Solutions, suffered a severe cardiac event on Wednesday, May 29. She was admitted to Forsyth Medical Center and has been in the Cardiac ICU since then. Sadly, Sally remains unresponsive with significant brain damage.
Sally played a vital role in securing sponsors for ACCSSO during its formative years. Your donations will greatly assist her family with the mounting medical expenses during this incredibly challenging time. Thank you for your support and kindness.
