THE POWER OF A SUPPORT SYSTEM with MARY ANN CAPUTO - Executive Director of SPOHNC
Description
Mary Ann Caputo is an experienced Executive Director with a demonstrated history of working in the non-profit organization management industry. Skilled in Nonprofit Organizations, Event Planning, Nonprofit Management, Strategic Planning, and Event Management. Since 2005, she has been a tireless advocate for families during what is often the most challenging time in their lives, guiding them through a cancer diagnosis treatment and recovery.Caputo’s career at SPOHNC was inspired by its founder Nancy Leupold. Her diagnosis, determination and vision for the organization inspired everyone, including Caputo. Since her appointment as Executive Director, she has helped to develop new programs, published an array of resources for navigating this disease, grown funding by 20 percent , and expanded the number of support groups from 25 to over 100 throughout the country with a mentoring program of over 225 volunteers.
Her studies at City College and Pace University pre-pared her to pursue a career in social services. Despite ten years as a Finance Director at Revlon, Inc. her earlier residency as a social worker at Bellevue Hospital in New York City was the biggest game changer for her.
Prior to joining SPOHNC, she put her energy into her family, raising her twin boys, Frank and Larry, and her daughter Christina. She resides in Bayville with her husband, Lawrence.
Today she is continuing her true calling. Helping others is a gift that keeps on giving and she feels blessed to be doing what she loves. In addition to her work at SPOHNC, Caputo is on the editorial board of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), and on the EAB SPORE for Head and Neck Cancer at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
One of Mary Ann''s favorite quotes: "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much” Helen Keller.
SPOHNC, a not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, has become a vital component of the healing process for head and neck cancer patients. It has had an enormous positive impact on meeting the psychosocial needs of patients as well as preserving, restoring, and promoting physical and emotional health. A support organization, such as SPOHNC, can also be the foundation for patient and family education and awareness.
