Lori Gold has been named the 2022 Woman of the Year by the Women United Flagler Chapter.
She received the award at the organization’s 14th annual Flagler Power of the Purse VIP preview event on Aug. 29 at Elite Dance and Travel in Palm Coast, according to a news release.
The winner receives $500 to be donated to the charity of her choice, and Gold has selected the Dolly Parton Imagination Library and Feed Flagler — through Flagler County Schools — to receive $250 each.
“I am humbled and honored to have received this recognition and strive to make a positive impact in our community,” Gold said.
Gold was a United Way Campaign representative and Old Kings Elementary teacher prior to her involvement with Women United Flagler.
This year’s Power of the Purse event grossed over $14,000 through the sale of auction items, sponsorships, and VIP ticket sales, according to the news release.
