Why I Volunteer: Susan Brenner
“I care about people. I learned that from my father growing up, he cared about people. He grew up not having very much and was very successful in life, and he always felt like the community was good to him, so he wanted to give back. So I feel the same way. I also did volunteer work with my mom when I was very young at the Temple Emmanuel in Winston Salem, North Carolina.” It’s an important value for me to give back and to help people.”
—Susan Brenner
