Ken is a retired teacher who has been an Engage volunteer since 2015. Ken volunteers twice a week in Friendship Circle, part of the Adult Day Program at Sid Jacobson JCC, and provides clients with a warm smile and engaging conversation.  

Ken’s commitment to volunteering extends beyond the walls of Sid Jacobson. He dedicates time to the Friendly Visiting program, enriching the life of a home-bound senior one day a week. In addition, Ken donates time to the Mary Brennan INN soup kitchen and participates in food and clothing donation drives to help community members in need.

A regular visitor to the volunteer office, Ken shares stories about his love of family, commitment to the Jewish community and gratitude for the opportunity to give back through volunteering.

Ken feels his volunteer work is worth every minute of his time if he can improve the life of someone else. To date, those “minutes” amount  to more than 843 hours of volunteer service. 

Thank you Ken, for all that you do!
