United Way remembers Jennie Malone, a member of our staff team, who passed away after a brief, private and courageous battle with cancer.
Jennie Malone contributed to our organization through work in donor engagement and community impact. As the staff lead for GenNext, Jennie developed and strengthened relationships with volunteers and workplaces and played a key role in events and community activities.
More recently, as a Community Impact Specialist, Jennie coordinated funding allocations processes including Local Love in a Global Crisis and Youth United and worked to maintain strong connections with our volunteers and agency partners despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We will treasure our 2021 Virtual Impact Tour video which featured Jennie as the host – an opportunity for her to combine her radio communication experience with her passion for community development.
Jennie always showed up for United Way and our staff team, taking everything in stride in her relaxed and laid-back way. She found joy in every opportunity that came her way. She was dedicated to our collective commitment to preventing and reducing poverty and was always willing to contribute her skills and experience to any project.
While at work, Jennie prioritized relationships, taking the time to listen, talk and quickly share a laugh with colleagues and volunteers. Sometimes a quiet observer, she was insightful, smart and deeply committed to building community wherever she was. Jennie was skilled at every team building activity whether it was bowling, painting or cocktail mixing – and everyone’s top pick for a trivia team member.
Thank you, Jennie. Your friends and colleagues at United Way already miss you.
