Jeff Haller, Managing Partner with DataServ, the leading on-demand service provider of document management, workflow and F&A outsourcing solutions, was elected to President of the Board for The Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition (FACC).
FACC is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) agency, that strives to create permanency in every foster child's life by recruiting and supporting foster/adoptive homes in the St. Louis metropolitan community. Jeff joined the Board of Directors of the Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition in 2003 and became President of the Board in January, 2006.
"Jeff is an articulate and passionate ambassador for FACC, taking advantage of every opportunity to spread the word about the critical need for caring, nurturing foster/adoptive homes," says Debbie Genung, Director of Development for Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition. "Jeff understands the long-term effects that trauma can produce and how crucial our work is. As board president, Jeff immediately set out to help FACC expand the board to include people with the skills we need to be effective. Jeff has been instrumental in board development, leading a successful board retreat this past spring. As board president, he keeps a watchful eye on the organization's finances and provides strategic long range planning expertise to make sure that FACC remains mission-driven and fiscally sound."
In support of the Foster & Adoptive Care Coalition, we would like to announce an event called Family Ties that will be held on November 25th, 2006. The purpose of Family Ties is to provide a free-of-charge, high-quality cultural experience in the form of entertaining children's theater for 595 foster children and their families. This year's production is Charlotte's Web. Sponsorships pay for the children to attend. For more information, or to make a donation to FACC, please call Debbie Genung, Director of Development, at 314-340-6973 or email her at debbiegenung@foster-adopt.org.
