🌟Volunteer Spotlight: Natasha Lightner 🌟
Meet , one of our incredible board members who has played a pivotal role in planning the Victorian Tea, supporting fundraising efforts, and more!
Natasha began volunteering with Sojourner House in 2016 after she was invited to attend the Victorian Tea by a work colleague. Our mission deeply resonated with her – because, like many, her family has been impacted by substance use disorder. “Everyone has someone with substance use disorder,” Natasha says, “Everybody deserves a second chance.”
She joined the board in 2023 and became board Vice President the following year. For Natasha, the most rewarding part of volunteering is when she makes a connection with a mom and helps to build her confidence. Natasha’s proudest moment was when she earned the highest accolade from Avon which allowed her to donate $5,000 to Sojourner House and use her platform to share our story with thousands of people.
⛰️ Outside of volunteering, Natasha loves to travel and her dream vacation is to visit Fiji!
Thank you Natasha for your dedication to promoting our mission and helping our programs succeed. 🙌
