Susan Laskin: October 2014 Volunteer of the MonthI joined NCJW as a young mother 30 years ago. I became involved in the original Mid-Bergen Section with my friends and neighbors and became Vice President of Programming for a number of years. In1995 I joined NCJW’s ABCs program (After Breast Cancer Surgery). I became President of that organization for 10 years, helping many women recover emotionally and physically from a breast cancer diagnosis and surgery (myself included). When Mid-Bergen Section merged, I became a member of our Bergen County Section, serving on the Board for many years, while enjoying a full time career as a realtor. I have been Israel Granting Program Chairperson and currently am in charge of NCJW BCS’ new and exciting Facebook Page (please go tofacebook, look up NCJW BCS and please remember the space; and then click LIKE!!). I also represent our section by singing at various NCJW BCS programs and holiday events (Rockleigh Jewish Home’s annual Chanukah party, etc). It is easy for NCJW to become your passion. We accomplish so much good for so many people on so many levels. I am proud to be a member of this dynamic group of women.
