Cheers to Volunteers! – Janet and Dave Loftus

Janet and Dave Loftus are dedicated volunteers for Growing Futures Early Education Center. Dave is a wealth advisor with Mainstreet Retirement & Investment Center. He contributes to Growing Futures and encourages his family and co-workers to give, too. In 2012, he began to organize donation drives at the Credit Union where his company is located, and, in 2015, his business became a sponsor. Janet and Dave became classroom volunteers in 2017, and the duo loves spending time with the young children.

Dave Loftus delivered diapers and other supplies collected by the staff at Mainstreet Credit Union for the children and families at Growing Futures.

 

Janet Loftus assisted teachers Tara Ackerman and Sheila Fowler in the classroom.
