Volunteer Spotlight: Annual Meeting Awardees

This month, we are focusing our spotlight on four incredibly deserving volunteers who are being recognized at our annual meeting on June 24: Jack Almo, Andrew Cohen, Alexa Huggins and Rivy Poupko Kletenik.

• Alexa Huggins, a financial analyst at Boeing, has proven herself as a young leader! She is a devoted volunteer and has served as Menschworks Chair, SpringBoard Chair, on the YLD executive committee and currently is Ben-Gurion Society Chair for the Jewish Federation. She also went on the YLD Mission to Israel a few years ago.
• Jack Almo works at UBS as a private wealth advisor. He is Chair of our Special Initiatives Fund, Vice Chair for PAC and incoming PAC Chair, and will serve on our board’s Executive Committee. This is in addition to his numerous other roles in the Jewish and secular community.
• Andrew Cohen is the principal of CoHo Accounting. He has served on the board for many years, is currently our Treasurer and serves on the Executive Committee. In addition to keeping the numbers clear for our general operations, his work on collections and the JTNews board warrant special mention.
• Rivy Poupko Kletenik is the Head of School at the Seattle Hebrew Academy. She lectures and teaches extensively throughout the greater Seattle community, including at Turn The Page, and shares her wisdom and teachings of Jewish interest in local and national publications.
