Andy Roddick Foundation

Celebrating Dana Read: A True Champion and Board Emeritus for the Andy Roddick Foundation. Since 2014, Dana Read an Assurance Partner at PwC and now a proud Board Emeritus member, has been a relentless force behind our mission to create opportunities for ARF youth and their families. Dana's journey began as a volunteer at our Pecan Springs summer camp, and she later took on the role of Finance Chair during her time on our board. Dana's leadership has been instrumental in our fundraising efforts. She has organized impactful events, such as volunteer days with PwC employees, and her efforts have helped us raise over $230,000 for our programs. These funds have directly benefited the youth and families we serve, allowing us to close the learning gap and improve the lives of our East Austin youth and families. Dana, we are deeply grateful for your unwavering support and the legacy you are building with ARF. Your dedication and passion have driven our mission, and we couldn't have come this far without you. Thank you for all that you do!
