It meant a lot to me to receive the Salvation Army
"Others" Award.
It is a high honor. I have been awarded the San Francisco
District Award, "Silver Tambourine" several
years ago for the organization of the Santa Clara County
Board .
I have been active in all phases of Salvation Army work
for thirty years as a volunteer.

For
my two year service as chairman of the San Jose Salvation
Army Adult Rehabilitation Center Advisory Board, the
Northern California District granted the "Others"
Award. Our area takes in Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San
Benito and Monterey Counties, where we run
a six month "free" rehabilitation program, solely
supported by our Salvation Army Thrift Stores.
I ended my term, increasing donations and sales at the
thirft stores through increasing automobile donation sales,
developing and maintaining www.salvationthrift.com,
helping to establish the largest retail store we believe
on the West
Coast, activating a Speaker's Bureau program, implementing
many programs along with a great board of advisors, active
in the committee system to accomplish our goals.
