Steve Schanes truly enriches our Jewish community.

Time after time„ Steve immerses himself in volunteer work,

producing incredible results for a lot of community service

projects. Not surprisingly, Steve's devotion began during

his teen-age years with BBYO. That's when he got his first

taste of leadership, Tzedakah and community service.

Now it looks like our community is getting another gener-

ation of Schanes leaders. Steve's 15-year-old daughter,

Jennifer, joined the BBYO family last year.
