Welcome, Joanna Gillespie!
The Lab’s Community Partnerships Office (CPO) is pleased to welcome Joanna Gillespie as its new Community Giving Specialist. Gillespie comes to CPO after serving as the longtime executive director of the Los Alamos Public Schools Foundation.
“Having lived in Los Alamos for many years, I have admired the important work of the Lab workforce and have witnessed the generous spirit of the employees,” she says. “The opportunity to work in the Community Partnerships Office and interact directly with the workforce on the drives and campaigns seems like a dream come true, and I look forward to helping the employees give to the causes and people that matter most to them.”
PERSONAL MESSAGE
As the school year winds down and summer vacation stretches before us, it’s a good time to reflect on all that’s happened since last August. From mastering multiplication to performing in dance recitals, my daughters’ worlds are continually expanding, and I am grateful to the teachers and coaches who have furthered their education.
