The Personal Side of Our Mission

Your health is personal. At CHAD, it’s also deeply connected to our mission. This month, three members of our CHAD team are sharing their personal stories of navigating health challenges—stories that illustrate why we’re so passionate about supporting Nebraska’s 23 statewide health agencies. From overcoming obstacles in hearing to managing chronic conditions, our journeys highlight resilience and the power of innovation. Click below to read Shonda’s, Kari’s or Mark’s story and see how health challenges have shaped not just our lives, but our commitment to CHAD’s mission: Connecting companies and causes to raise funds for Nebraska's leading health agencies.
