June Community Member of the Month – Shirley and Doug
titles_underlne

This month’s community members of the month are two of our esteemed founders, Shirley Folkins-Roberts and Doug Roberts. These dedicated philanthropists have been vital partners in NNCCF’s growth over the past 24 years, generously contributing their time and resources. Moreover, they have extended their philanthropic mission through Panattoni Development, where Doug serves as President, National Development Group and Shirley as Community Relations Director. Valued throughout the community, the Roberts are passionate about supporting northern Nevada and have committed both time and funding to numerous local organizations. We are thrilled to celebrate their significant impact on northern Nevada’s young cancer warriors! Read their interview with NNCCF here:

How did you first connect with NNCCF?

We are co-founders of Keaton Raphael Memorial (subsequently NNCCF)

What is your NNCCF “why”?

To be part of an organization and effort that brings our generous community together to support families during their darkest moments and brave journeys is without measure.

What is one thing you’ve done for NNCCF that you’re proud of?

Helping start an organization and watching it grow through incredible community support, a dedicated Board is amazing. It has also been rewarding to see some (but not enough) improvements in childhood cancer treatment which saves lives with less damage to growing bodies.

If you could meet anyone, past or present, who would you meet and why?

Doug: Dwight Eisenhower
Shirley Sandra Day O’Connor
