Dear Members, 

We’re pleased to welcome John Keverkamp, CPA, as our Interim Executive Director, effective March 1. John will be leading the organization while the Shaw JCC Executive Committee conducts a nationwide search for a permanent Executive Director.

John is a familiar face on the Schultz Campus for Jewish Life having served as the Chief Financial Officer of the Jewish Community Board of Akron (JCBA) for the last 10 years. He will continue in that position while taking on Shaw JCC Executive Director duties during the search process. John brings to this position two decades of nonprofit leadership experience. He previously worked as Director of Finance for Hattie Larlham and earned his BSBA in Accounting from Lake Erie College and MBA from Kent State University. 

John will provide leadership, guidance and direction to the Shaw JCC staff and work with the Board of Trustees to continue to provide our membership with a high level of service and programming during this transition.

Please join me in welcoming him to the Shaw JCC. He may be reached at 330-835-0009 or john_keverkamp@jewishakron.org.

Sincerely, 

Judi Shapiro
Board President
Shaw JCC Board of Trustees
