John has dedicated the past 28 years to teaching and coaching at Title 1 schools in Arizona. Through his extensive experience working with youth, he understands the profound impact that acts of kindness, encouragement, and positive motivation can have on their lives. Joining SWKCF represents another meaningful opportunity for him to support and positively influence the lives of children who are in need of assistance. SWKCF appeared to be an appropriate choice, given the profound effect cancer has had on several members of my family. I am privileged to contribute to such an esteemed organization that provides an avenue for giving back.
