Empower Brokerage Honored with Blaze Award by Me Squared Cancer Foundation

Empower Brokerage Honored with Blaze Award

On March 8, 2025, Empower Brokerage received the prestigious Blaze Award from the Me Squared Cancer Foundation during the annual Black & White Gala held at the Westin Hotel in Southlake, Texas. This award was presented by Mimi Tran, the foundation's founder, CEO, and cancer survivor, in recognition of the substantial support the brokerage has provided to the charity since its inception.

The Me Squared Cancer Foundation was established in 2019 with the mission to aid cancer patients residing in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. It focuses on providing financial support and comfort items to help individuals navigate their medical treatments. Over the years, the foundation has distributed over $1.7 million in financial awards to more than 700 individuals, showcasing its commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of those battling cancer.

Empower Brokerage has partnered with the foundation by providing financial donations, knitted hats, comforting blankets, and care packages. This collaboration has significantly assisted patients throughout the treatment process, addressing essential needs from medical costs to transportation for medical visits.

For patients to qualify for assistance from the Me Squared Cancer Foundation, they must be newly diagnosed adult cancer patients living in specific counties in Texas, including Collin, Dallas, Denton, and others. The foundation aims to alleviate some of the financial burdens associated with cancer treatment, which may include costs for medications, chemotherapy, surgery, and accommodation when treatment requires travel away from home.

The recognition that Empower Brokerage has received is not merely a celebration of financial contributions; it underscores the importance of community involvement in supporting individuals facing health crises. The dedication exhibited by both the brokerage and the foundation reflects a shared goal of fostering hope and recovery among those affected by cancer.

The evening of the award presentation was a hallmark event, highlighting stories of resilience and the power of community support. "We are proud to accept this award, not only on behalf of our team but on behalf of every patient we strive to support, "said Rodney Culp, President and CEO of Empower Brokerage, expressing gratitude for this honor.

For those interested in contributing to the efforts of the Me Squared Cancer Foundation and supporting the fight against cancer, more information for donations can be found on their official website. The foundation continues to seek generous partners who understand the profound impact their support can have on local communities.

Empower Brokerage's ongoing commitment to charitable efforts emphasizes the role that businesses can play in uplifting their communities and making a difference. We look forward to seeing how their partnership with the Me Squared Cancer Foundation evolves in the future, potentially improving the lives of countless individuals in need.

As we celebrate this achievement, it serves as a reminder that together, we can work towards a future where healthcare equity is a reality and every cancer patient receives the support they rightfully deserve.
