John is always such a pleasure to work with as Volunteer Program Coordinator with the United Way. He is always professional, responsive and organized. During this year's Week of Caring event John came on site to our volunteer location to make sure we had everything we needed. I would be confident in recommending John to others.

I would like to recommend John Furman. He has been a valuable volunteer at our CareerLink® by conducting workshops and networking with job seekers. John has many skills and abilities but he truly shines when he is able to work with individuals with diverse backgrounds. I have worked with John for the past two years, he is always available to assist both staff and our job seekers with practical advice and technical assistance.
