Today we were honored to celebrate the 10-year work anniversaries of two of our esteemed colleagues! Many of you have seen Juliet Maloff, senior communications officer, out and about directing photoshoots for our publications and connecting media to meaningful stories in our community. Thank you for your non-wavering reliability, multiple talents, and loyalty to the Community Foundation, Juliet. You are so loved and appreciated! The top notch accounting and auditing skills of Liz Hartman, senior director of finance, plays an integral role in our clean audits each year, but the way she cares about our staff stands out the most. Her love for and dedication to all that is the Community Foundation makes her a highly valued member of the team. Congratulations and thank you to you both!
