Rabbitt Honored for Support of Breast Cancer Coalition

Rabbitt, a breast cancer survivor, donated a substantial portion of the construction services that went into the buildout of NBCC’s new office space.

Rabbitt was honored at a June 15 open house at NBCC’s new headquarters in Washington, D.C.

“We are thrilled with our new offices, and everyone at the National Breast Cancer Coalition knows that Linda’s tremendous support and the many talents of her crew at Rand Construction helped make it all possible,” said NBCC President Fran Visco. “We are extremely grateful for everything Linda and her entire team contributed to help NBCC continue in its mission to end breast cancer.”

Volunteering to help with worthy causes is nothing new for Rabbitt, who was named as one of Washingtonian magazine’s 2003 People of the Year.

As CEO of the Washington area’s third-largest female-owned business and a leader of the Washington Building Congress and Commercial Real Estate Women, Rabbitt has encouraged women to build careers in construction and commercial real estate. As president of the International Women’s Forum, she helped create a Leadership Foundation to fund a fellows program for women moving up the corporate ladder. In addition, Rabbitt has helped raise funds for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure and for My Sister’s Place, a program for battered women.

The National Breast Cancer Coalition is a grassroots organization dedicated to ending breast cancer through the power of action and advocacy. For more information, go to: www.stopbreastcancer.org.
