AdventHealth Foundation Central Florida is grateful to be a recipient of his and Pepsi’s amazing work. We are delighted to spotlight Ned for the Volunteer of the Month for October.
Ned steps up for everything AdventHealth Foundation Central Florida asks from him, as he has supported the Foundation for over 15 years. We are especially thankful for Ned’s hard work during the pandemic. He and Pepsi generously helped facilitate a pick me up for our COVID-19 front line teams with hundreds of Pepsi product.
In addition, Ned has always been eager to participate in many of the Foundation’s fundraising events.
“I feel that it is important to give back to the community. Working with AdventHealth Foundation Central Florida allows me to stay relevant in the community and give back.”

Ned is an Avid golfer, donates blood frequently, is a member of the Diversity Advisory Board at Pepsi and serves on the Women Inclusion Network Committee. He also participates in many of the October cancer awareness events each year.
Thank you, Ned for your commitment and support of our mission each year.
