Our June Volunteer Spotlight, Curtis Ksenak, jumped
into the LPCS team like a kid into a swimming pool on the first day of summer!
Originally introduced to us through our Board President, Gil Matar, as a new
member of the Lincoln Park Chamber of Commerce, Curtis was interested in using
his skills to help LPCS.
Curtis currently works with Responsive Network
Solutions, a tech support company that helps small to mid-sized businesses with
their computer and tech needs. From the moment we were put in contact, we put
Curtis to work! LPCS is always in need of people to help out with our
computers, printers, scanners, and all other tech related items – Curtis was
the perfect addition to our Tech Team, the group of people we call upon
whenever we have an issue we are unable to solve on our own. As a small staff
in a non profit, this support is invaluable!
Since then, Curtis has become a regular sight at
LPCS, joining us in the morning before work, staying for entire days, and even
coming back on weekends and evenings to help with anything that needs fixing!
He will tackle anything from a simple networking error to an entire overhaul of
our Server, Curtis is dedicated to finding solutions for LPCS.
In addition to the Tech Support he offers us on a
constant, and last minute, basis, Curtis has also joined our Associate Board.
The Associate Board is made up of a group of LPCS supporters and volunteers
that works with staff and the Board of Directors to develop and implement plans
to make LPCS a stronger and thriving, long-term organization.
We cherish Curtis and his dedication to LPCS; we
greatly appreciate all that he does for us and the time that he provides!
“Having worked for a number of non-profit organizations, I know
the budget constraints these type of organizations face on a yearly
basis. As a result, I volunteer for LPCS as a way to reduce the costs
associated with the organization’s IT system. The staff and Guests of the
Shelter are absolutely amazing and I know when I walk into the Shelter I will
always leave with a huge smile on my face. If you need a place where you
want to volunteer to actually make a difference in people’s lives, the LPCS
should be your choice.”-Curtis Ksenac
