North Peninsula Jewish Community Teen Foundation-Lindsay Stern

This year I was fortunate enough to be accepted into the North Peninsula Jewish Teen Foundation (NPJCTF). This is my second year that I have had this great opportunity. I am so lucky to be able to be on the Leadership board this year. It is now my responsibility to lead the meetings and think of ideas for them. NPJCTF is a non-profit group that consists of 24 young adults who raise money to allocate grants to worthwhile causes. The foundation gives to Jews as well as non-Jews. The NPJCTF is a leadership and teen philanthropy program. I decided to join the NPJCTF so I can make my own mark on the world, and to help people around me who need help. By being a part of this amazing charitable group I am learning how to raise donations, evaluate organizations and proposals, and grant funds.
