Nan Ellner

Philanthropist

Nan Street is a former executive in the Insurance and Risk Management Industry. She spent the bulk of her career as a national sales and account management leader in the Managed Care and Cost Containment sectors. Six years ago, Ms. Street decided to take six months off to focus on family. That ‘sabbatical’ turned into a full-blown passion for philanthropy and serving her community. The skills she developed through the years – process improvement, solution strategies, client retention, planning and analysis – have served her well outside the corporate world.

Ms. Street had been been actively involved in several organizations throughout her professional life including The Alliance of Women in Worker’s Compensation – a think tank of engaged female thought leaders committed to discussing the challenges and emerging trends in worker’s compensation with the goal of idea-sharing, networking and insight gathering and Kid’s Chance – a non-profit organization that provides educational scholarships to children of Georgia workers who have been seriously, catastrophically or fatally injured in work- related accidents.

Currently Ms. Street sits on the United Way’s Advisory Board for Clayton County, Georgia – one of the most economically challenged areas in metro-Atlanta. She is a member of the Revenue Committee for Out Teach and VP of Philanthropy of the National Charity League. Ms. Street is also a member of the Women’s Giving Circle for the Woodruff Arts Center, and sits on the fund-raising Host Committee for the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Hope and Will Ball. Nan is a cancer survivor of 20 years. She lives in Atlanta and has three children.

"Cancer disparity researchers study these gaps and how to close them....But the AACR report found that federal policy changes have affected about 93% of surveyed researchers in this field." Sad truth. Perfect opportunity. Donate to cancer research being conducted right here in Georgia by supporting Georgia CORE.

Georgia CORE cancer research and clinical trials
10mo ago

Did you hear? We're putting weird looking stools all over bars and coffee shops to get Georgians talking about WEIRD LOOKING STOOLS. WHY? COLON CANCER. It's growing at an alarming rate in younger people. It kills more Georgians than almost any other cancer. By 2030, it will be the #1 cancer killer of people under 50.

Georgia CORE clinical trial resources

Georgia Society of Clinical Oncology is partnering with Georgia CORE to support the Georgia Cancer Trial Finders pilot! This innovative service helps oncology providers identify clinical trials for their patients and connect directly with research staff across Georgia. Clinical trials offer access to groundbreaking treatments - and patients are more likely to participate when trials are available close to home.
