Rory Dominick
Executive Director
When The Cameron Can Foundation formalized, Rory was the natural choice for Executive Director. It is, after all, a foundation named for her son, who was the first grant recipient. And nothing is more important to Rory than “paying it forward” by creating a lasting legacy of care for the Friends of Cameron grant recipients. Though Rory is a Realtor by trade, she’s grateful that her connections from a past career in the world of Chicago advertising help create amazing creative for The Cameron Can Foundation. Rory wanted to be a doctor when she grew up. Then, she majored in journalism with news anchor aspirations. With The Cameron Can Foundation, she’s part healer; part evangelist…a fortuitous fit.
