Last year, my friend Sheri Fine (one of the Annual Benefit Co-Chairs) asked me to join her on the Annual Benefit Steering Committee and I did.
What JFCS programs do you volunteer with and how long have you been volunteering with JFCS?
I’ve worked on the Steering Committee doing various tasks. This year, I’m working with Dale Engquist (another Annual Benefit Co-Chair) on the live music portion of the event.

I’m always impressed with the success of the Annual Benefit.
Do you have a memorable story about your JFCS volunteer experience to share?

JFCS is a good organization to volunteer with. They give you tasks to perform and opportunities to do many more.
