The Northern Kentucky Chamber Women’s Initiative will recognize Allyson True Cook as the recipient of the seventh annual Debbie Simpson Spirit of Achievement Award, presented by C-Forward.
The award will be presented at the Women’s Initiative 11th Annual Breakfast, sponsored by PNC on Tuesday, January 14. It honors women involved in the Northern Kentucky Chamber Women’s Initiative (WI) who have made a significant impact upon the progress of the WI program, had career success, and been active in the community.
“Allyson has personified the value that ‘inspired women, inspire women,’” said Shelley Funke Frommeyer, CEO & Wealth Advisor at FFR Wealth Team and Women’s Initiative Steering Committee Chair. “Her smile, encouragement of others to participate, and her willingness to work diligently for the success of the Northern Kentucky Chamber has impressed me over the seven years I have volunteered alongside Allyson.”
The NKY Chamber Women’s Initiative is the leading organization for women of all career stages to connect, grow and achieve for business and professional success. The Women’s Initiative offers a continuum of growth for women of all ages and stages of their careers.
Cook, counsel at Stites & Harbison, is a graduate of the University of Kentucky. She routinely counsels clients in construction, real estate, commercial finance, healthcare, general business services, and litigation.
In addition to performing her duties as an attorney, Cook has been actively involved with the NKY Chamber since 2008, serving on numerous committees including the Employee Legal Strategies Committee, Women’s Initiative Golf Outing Committee, Women’s Initiative Annual Breakfast Committee, and Women’s Initiative On the Road Committee.
“I have been involved with the Women’s Initiative since 2009, and the impact on my life both professionals and personally through my involvement has been very rewarding,” said Cook. “I have been able to meet so many amazing women who are successful because they enjoy and love what they do each day. They are truly the ‘best of the best,’ and I am thankful to be part of this wonderful initiative.”
