Our Committees

Board Development

The board committee, comprised of 20 men and women from the fields of law, accounting, business, education, finance, real estate, social work, marketing, and government, develops the board's strategic plan. The members reside in 10 different towns.

Finance

Led by Treasurer George Milne of Englewood, the committee supervises the annual audit, oversees the budget process, and monitors agency investments. The committee recommends spending cuts and/or investments to anticipate budget shortfalls and funding challenges.

Fund Development

Chaired by Englewood's Jayanne Tedesco, this committee meets the challenges of raising funds in the face of the current global economic climate. Some success comes through foundation and corporate support through grant writing. Bergen Family Center started off 2011 on a high note with a generous donation from The Khym Foundation. Charles Yoon presented President/CEO Mitch Schonfeld with a $10,000 check at the center in Jan. 2011. Recent $10,000+ donations have also come from Rutgers University, the Van Houten Memorial Fund, and an anonymous local family foundation which is investing in our early childhood education.

The yearly Annual Awards Dinner is Bergen Family Center's major donor event that has netted 190,000 dollars to BFC's services and programs in 2010. The 2011 Dinner is planned for November 9th at Rockleigh Country Club. Fund development also oversees the growth and expansion of the "Friends of the Family" committee, which is planning a June 9th Appreciation Event to thank donors and meet new friends.

Human Resources

Chaired by Sharon Kinsman Salmon of Englewood, this committee oversees the personnel needs of BFC, including compensation and benefits. Although the severe economic dip resulted in the reduction of some administrative and programmatic positions in the past two years, programs to clients were not eliminated. More than 110 staff members and volunteers work nearly 200,000 hours to ensure the high quality of client services. Recent accomplishments include the creation of a revised employee handbook thanks to the pro-bono legal work of Jody Walker.

Program Committee

Under the leadership of Englewood's Lisa Levien, this committee monitors program quality, program development, and assists with needs assessments. The committee reviews the five major program divisions and makes recommendations to improve the success of BFC services.

Public Relations / Technoloy

Chaired by Dr. Shelly Wimpfheimer, the public relations / tech committee ensures transparency and visibility to BFC's volunteers, constituents, and media outlets in order to increase donor, staff, and volunteer capacity. Monthly electronic newsletters, annual reports, and biannual newsletters are a few of the many pr items developed by the committee.
