Middleburg, VA – July 19, 2024 – Executive Director of Windy Hill Foundation, Eloise Repeczky, has been selected as a 2024 Loudoun 40 Under 40 honoree. Loudoun 40 Under 40 recognizes the top young business and community leaders in Loudoun County, spanning a wide array of viewpoints, backgrounds, and professional sectors. Since accepting the role of Executive Director in November of 2022, Eloise Repeczky has made waves in our community by not only bringing awareness to Windy Hill’s mission, but ensuring Windy Hill residents are receiving the services they need to grow and thrive as individuals.
President of the Windy Hill Foundation Board of Director, Gabrielle Gallegos, emphasizes the dynamic influence Mrs. Repeczky has made on the WHF Community since joining in 2022, “Eloise has made progress not in just one or two of the goals the Board set for her, she has achieved significant success in all of them, literally bringing Windy Hill back from the devastation of Covid and advancing the organization to a new level of professionalism and performance. Eloise and I have worked together closely through her tenure, and I have been awed by her intelligence, dedication, and kindness”.
Many members of our community can attest to Mrs. Repeczky’s dedication to our local communities and ability to make powerful change. “Eloise is an asset to Windy Hill and the countless other organizations she’s dedicated her time and energy to. She’s raised money to help friends and family battling life threatening illnesses; she’s volunteered countless hours of her time to those in her community less fortunate than her; and the openness of her heart knows no bounds.” – Dustin Vick, Director of Business Development at McDermott Will & Emery.
In addition to her work with Windy Hill Foundation, Ms. Repeczky is heavily involved in the Loudoun and Washington DC area communities through various organizations. Eloise is an active Board Member on the Buchanan Hall Board of Directors, and a brain aneurysm awareness advocate, or “Bee Ambassador”, with the Bee Foundation. Another advocate and brain aneurysm survivor, Elizabeth Ratta, speaks to the impact Ms. Repeczky has made with the Bee Foundation, “Undergoing brain surgery is a terrifying experience, not only for the patient but for their family who feel helpless as they watch. Eloise was so invested in her sister’s well-being that she left no stone unturned in getting her sister the care she needed. This was in the form of vital medical care but almost equally as important was the support from other brain aneurysm survivors and organizations.” Elizabeth Ratta speaks on Ms. Repeczky’s involvement,
“My brain aneurysm journey led me to create a research grant and hospital fund in my grandma’s honor after her own brain aneurysm. The grant focuses on Black, Hispanic and Women’s brain aneurysm research and the hospital fund was created for brain aneurysm patients with financial needs. Single handedly, Eloise campaigned with her family and friends to donate to the cause. She was tireless in her support and heartfelt in her ask for money to a cause that is often overlooked. The largest amount of financial support for the grant came due to Eloise’s efforts which she did with no recognition (except from me) and no expectation of praise for doing it. She did it because of her character, her leadership and her devotion to the cause.” To learn more about the Bee Foundation, visit: www.thebeefoundation.org.
“I am delighted to be recognized as a 2024 Loudoun 40 Under 40 Honoree, and I look forward to meeting my 2024 classmates who all contribute to making Loudoun a better place to live and work,” Ms. Repeczky states. “I have admired previous Loudoun 40 Under 40 honorees and appreciate seeing familiar faces and causes as they were announced. I’m grateful to be able to represent Windy Hill Foundation, and for the opportunity to highlight the work that our terrific team accomplishes through collaboration and dedication.” To learn more, visit: www.loudoun40under40.com/.
