During our One Day #Fit2BeCancerFree CEO Challenge, Steve O'Loughlin (President and Chief Operating Officer of Lodging Hospitality Management) not only brought the energy with his dance moves, but also made sure to include an important educational message in his video. It’s that perfect mix of purpose and personality that earned him the title of Most Socially Active CEO this year! Will someone rise to the challenge and take the crown next year? We’ll see. Thank you, Steve, for supporting our mission! https://lnkd.in/g5FvrB-N

"I work at ACS because I have so many people in my family who have been affected by cancer. But really, it's because my grandfather passed from pancreatic cancer, and I wanted to be part of an organization where I could make a difference.” Regina's personal why reminds us all of the profound reasons we come to work each day at ACS. Together, we're advancing our mission to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families - because cancer doesn't wait, and neither do we. Ready to make an impact? Visit https://lnkd.in/gtSCiMXs to discover how you can help us alleviate the burden of cancer.

Leadership isn't just about strategy—it's about recognizing the profound human connections that emerge in our most challenging moments. Our Boston Hope Lodge Manager, Angela DeMarco, witnesses something extraordinary daily: the transformative power of compassion and community. When caregivers and patients come together, they don't just share a space—they create lifelong bonds that redefine what support truly means. These connections remind us that our mission transcends medical care. It's about preserving hope, dignity, and human resilience. How are you creating meaningful connections in your professional journey?
