Valerie’s House Welcomes Elisa Bowersox, CPA as Board Treasurer
Elisa Bowersox, CPA, a tax manager with Markham Norton Mosteller Wright & Co., P.A. (MNMW), joined Valerie’s House Board of Directors as the Treasurer. In this volunteer role, Bowersox will assist the non-profit organization with the financial needs and responsibilities that help Valerie’s House successfully serve all the communities in which they have a facility.
“Valerie’s House has been helping so many children since opening in 2016, and a large reason for our reach into the community has been the support of partners, like MNMW,” said Valerie’s House Founder & CEO Angela Melvin. “Elisa has been a wonderful addition to our Board of Directors, and we are thrilled that she will serve as our Treasurer to help us help children and families work through the loss of a loved one and live fulfilling lives.”
Bowersox is not the first MNMW team member appointed to the Valerie’s House Board. Victoria Rodriguez, CPA, CHBC, MNMW firm partner, served as the agency’s Treasurer from 2017 to 2023, assisting with the organization’s exponential growth while overseeing the annual budget.
