Liz Paxton is a mother is a pediatric nurse and a mother of three. Liz worked for Riley for fifteen years and she is now the CEO at a local organization that supports adults with disabilities. When her career shifted, she began looking for ways to get involved in the community and found her way to The Patachou Foundation.Liz_PaxtonHow did you first hear about The Patachou Foundation?I have been wanting to volunteer for years and could never fit it into my schedule. So in January when I shifted my career I then had time to volunteer.What do you love most about volunteering with TPF?I love the fact that I can make a difference in the life of a child each time I am at school. Sometimes you build a relationship with a child and it continues each time you see them. These children need a strong support system in their lives and it is great to be that person.What’s your favorite memory or story from volunteering with TPF?Not necessarily a favorite story or memory but each day that I go I have such a great time and form new memories. School 54 is my primary and I love the kids there. Want to join Liz and our amazing team of volunteers? Apply today.
