About Courtney Clark

Courtney Clark is the luckiest unlucky person in the world. At age 26, Courtney beat melanoma. But five years post-cancer, routine follow-up scans detected an aneurysm in her brain. At the same time Courtney was dealing with her health crises, she founded the nonprofit Austin Involved as a way to connect young professionals to meaningful philanthropic opportunities. For her work in the community, Courtney has been honored with the Leadership Austin Ascendant Award, and was also recognized by Austin Monthly magazine as one of “20 in their 30s” and by GivingCity magazine as one of the “New Philanthropists.” Courtney received her Masters Degree in Philanthropy from Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota.
