Show Support for AORN President Missy Merlino!

Tuesday at Expo is always Foundation Day- the one day where our activities focus on our foundation and there is an amazing push for everyone to open their wallets to AORN’s Philanthropic arm.  Since we can’t all be together and enjoy the Foundation Day events, I had an idea.  

I know this is a difficult time for us and some people aren’t sure if their paychecks will continue or will be stopping.  Our fearless leader and President, Missi Merlino, has been a rock thru this situation and will not get the chance to have “her own Expo”.  I know how grateful everyone has been for her leadership, dedication and strength thru this difficult time.  So, to honor her forever, we would like to get enough money to purchase a brick at HQ in her honor.  If we could all donate a few dollars, maybe $5 to the Foundation, we could make this happen.  Just another way for Missi to know that her association and each of us stand behind her.  

If you are willing and able to help, please go to the AORN Foundation website.  Please be sure to write that the donation is in honor of Missi so that the funds can be designated correctly and so that you can be recognized in helping with this initiative. The direct link to donate is https://foundation.aorn.org/aorn-foundation-donation/. Please feel free to share this on facebook or via email, just PLEASE block Missi from seeing it on facebook.  We are hoping to keep this a surprise.  

Your help and support is greatly appreciated and Missi will be touched when she finds out what we’ve been able to do!! Any funds over the cost of the brick will be used as an unrestricted donation to the Foundation.

Let’s see how much we can raise in honor of our fearless leader on what should have been Foundation Day @ AORN Expo 2020!! Please feel free to call or text with any questions.

Thank you in advance,
