The Operation Walk Los Angeles Board of Directors consists of 19 wonderful and accomplished professionals who dedicate their time and resources to helping Operation Walk fulfill its growth and mission.
This month we’d like to spotlight Board Member Mr. Gordon Penharlow. He writes: “As we are all aware, the world can be a difficult and sometimes painful place. The work Larry and Jeri, and of course, the others involved in Operation Walk have been doing makes the world a better place for those they help. Continuing with this work and expanding it to include more patients will result in a better future for many people. My goal is to help as best as I can to make certain that this work continues.”
