Dear Friend,
Ruth’s List Florida is excited to announce four endorsements in Central Florida:
Angela Eady for Kissimmee City Commission, Seat 2
Sandra Fatmi-Hall for Orange County Commission, District 2
Barb Girtman for Volusia County Council, District 1
Cheryl Grieb for Osceola County Commission, District 4
Angela Eady is a two-time Ruth’s List almuna whose election will make her the only Black commissioner and will flip the commission from a male- to a female-majority. Angela has served on a number of boards, including the Central Florida Chapter for MADD and the Middle District Judicial Advisory Council.
Sandra Fatmi-Hall is a first-time candidate and, if elected, will be the first Black and Caribbean woman to represent this seat. She is one of the founders of United Foundations of Central Florida, a nonprofit that focuses on bridging the gap in the family, educational, and mentoring needs of the Central Florida community.
Barb Girtman is a Ruth’s List alumna and accomplished real estate professional running for re-election to serve Volusia County Council. She is Volusia’s only Black council member and is currently serving as vice chair in addition to her work initiating the Minority Business Network.
Cheryl Grieb is running for re-election after serving as the first and only openly LGBTQ+ member of the Osceola County Commission. She is a small business owner and a member of the Downtown Kissimmee Area Council for the Chamber of Commerce, as well as the commission’s current vice chair.
We’re thrilled to lend our support to these tireless women leaders. By making a contribution today, you can help ensure they have the resources to win. Visit the endorsed candidates page on our website to donate directly to their campaigns or click on the graphic below.
