How does one get connected and stay connected to community? How do we avoid isolation and lonliness? Tune in to find out and get inspired by longtime Valley resident Suzanne Sadowsky who has devoted her life to being of service in community for more than six decades and for multiple organizations.

Suzanne Sadowsky was born and grew up in Brooklyn, New York in 1935. She attended Alfred University in upstate New York, and went on to work for the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics soon after college, (first in New York, then Los Angeles and then in the San Francisco Regional Office) until her retirement in 1990. 

After retirement she got involved in her local community and was invited to join the Boards of a number of local nonprofit organizations including: West Marin Senior Services, the Coastal Health Alliance and our very own San Geronimo Valley Community Center. Suzanne worked at the center from in 1997 to 2017 doing program development, fundraising, and grant writing.

In 1992, she  started Gan HaLev, the Jewish Congregation of the San Geronimo Valley. Since 2014, she has served on the Board  of the San Geronimo Valley Affordable Housing Association, now the Two Valley Community Land Trust. As well as the Marin County Commission On Aging.
