What GBC means to me:
Give Back Cincinnati means a lot to both my wife and I because we met through our involvement in the organization. The organization has also introduced me to friends that I know I will have throughout my life. The organization recruits a unique people, willing to sacrifice their time and efforts to make the city a better place without the need to be recognized for their efforts…it’s what makes the organization special to me.
What I do for GBC:
Jay currently is the Program Lead for Fuel, a Give Back Cincinnati program designed to provide funding and support to ideas that develop and focus on young professionals in Cincinnati. Check us out at fuelcincinnati.org.
Fun Fact:
In 2006 I lived in downtown Honolulu for a five month work project. Those five months were January – May. Not a bad way to miss a Cincinnati winter.
