The CK Daily – Meet Rachel!
Good morning and happy Thursday everyone!
I hope y’all are finishing the week strong! My name is Rachel, and I’m just starting out here at CK, so I wanted to tell you a little bit about myself! Currently I am a student at the University of Georgia, and I am originally from the Buford, GA area, where CK first started.
One of my favorite things at UGA is UGA Miracle, which is a student-run organization that benefits Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. 2025 is the 30th year anniversary of UGA miracle this year, so we are having even more meaningful events for the families that we champion. This past weekend, we had one of our many “family days” of the year. We had a “Camp Miracle” theme so we played some board games, made bracelets, and had a super fun Just Dance party with our families! I am super grateful to be in this organization to make some lasting memories for the kids, families, and members to look back on!
That is just a little bit about what I am passionate about outside of my school and work! Having something other than school/work to put your energy into is so important and I hope you all find something you are passionate about in 2025!
Rachel
