Jono Bentley Testimonial

Jono Bentley, RYF alumni, Associate, American Securities

“The legacy of Lisa’s career in the Denver Jewish community and beyond is remarkable. Her original vision—of empowering a group of diverse teenagers to ‘give Jewishly’ through philanthropic giving—has had an enormous effect on the world: in the dollars dispersed to worthy nonprofits, in the minds convinced that teens could indeed be stewards of grantmaking, in the young people who gained fluency in Jewish values, professional skills, issue knowledge, self-confidence, and a conviction the we could come together to make the world better. I am so very thankful for her inspiration and friendship.”
