This is one in a series of profiles of officers in the Enzler Society, a group of young professionals and emerging philanthropists who support the mission of Catholic Charities through volunteerism and networking.
Tommy Hughes, service chair of
the Enzler Society
- Hometown: North Potomac, Md.
- Occupation: Associate at real estate developer.
- How long have you
been involved with the Enzler Society?
One year.
- Why did you join? After attending several events, the Enzler Society seemed
like a great platform to give back to the community and spend time with other
like-minded individuals.
- What’s your favorite
Enzler Society activity? My favorite
activity has been spending time with participants in the Youth Transitional Program (YTP). It’s fulfilling to help participants in the
program with the soft skills that aren’t necessarily taught in school but can
help in landing a job.
- Favorite Enzler
Society memory? One of my favorite
memories is the YTP Thanksgiving — being able to share a hearty meal and spend
time with the clients goes a long way.
- What are you
looking forward to in 2020? In 2020, I’m
looking forward to getting to know more participants in the program and helping
them get placed in meaningful employment.
