YMCA Award

Over the past 7 years (8 Bowl-a-Thons total) Jerry has continued to engage the employees, Leadership team, and Kansas Surgery and Recovery vendors in the YMCA’s Bowl a Thon. He willingly takes on the responsibility to recruit numerous teams each year and those teams always go well above and beyond the $600 team goal. He believes in the YMCA mission and impact and conveys that to the employees, resulting in their continued engagement in the event and Y.

In multiple years, Jerry has not been able to personally participate in the event due to vacations, major family life event (birth of twin daughters) or other activities, yet he willingly leads the charge to recruit teams and collect donations regardless. The continued involvement of Kansas Surgery and Recovery Center in the bowl-a-thon has played a large role in the Community Development Branch meeting our Bowl-a-Thon event goals.
