Vaughn J. Coleman
Board Vice President
Hello everyone. My name is Vaughn J. Coleman.
I’m a Certified Financial Planner ™ and a CEFN board member and I’ve been vending with CEFN and Sherry Hill for almost 20 years. I would just like to thank CEFN for their teamwork and professionalism as I have always had very positive experiences as a vendor. They have been an important part of helping me to grow my practice as I share the importance of personal financial planning strategies with the community. CEFN shares a passion for making sure seniors not only have a great time but are also exposed to the many services and networks that are available for their health and well-being. I am proud to be part of such a prestigious organization and super excited for what the future holds as we continue our mission.
Cherita Odums
Consultant/CEO “O” Insurance Group LLC
The “O” Insurance Group LLC has been in business since 2017 and connecting with CEFN was one of my greatest experiences. My passion is senior citizens and through this organization, I have helped and served so many people in the community and helped them with health and life insurance. It has been a rewarding experience and at every event, we have an awesome time. I love watching them dance and enjoy themselves and I always bring my mom to one event to work with me and enjoy herself. Ms. Sherry is the absolute best and the organization brings such positivity to the senior community. CEFN, I look forward to us continuing to work together. God Bless.

Sonia Devan
Manager, Community Engagement
Southeast Region
My name is Sonia DeVan and I am the Regional Manager of Community Engagement & Programs for Southeast, PA for Gateway Health. I am honored to reflect on the enduring partnership that Gateway Health has established over the years with CEFN. In 2014 Gateway had the pleasure of supporting the CEFN nutrition awareness and health cooking workshop series hosted at Opportunity Towers where more than 25 seniors dedicated their time to learn not only about the importance of healthy eating but also how to prepare and cook healthy meals. The information and education shared during the 6-week series engaged and empowered the participants who graduated and received certificates of completion recognizing their commitment to learning. The program was so well received and so successful that the full workshop series was hosted for a second time at the same location.
At Gateway, our mission is to care for the whole person in all communities where the need is greatest. And never has that need been greater than it is today. On behalf of Gateway Health, I applaud one of our most valued partners – the Community Enrichment & Fitness Network for striving to forge ahead during these challenging times and using technology to empower people to live healthier lives. It has been our pleasure to work with Sherry Hill, the Executive Director of CEFN, and Reverend Brown, former Board Chair for CEFN. Gateway Health is looking forward to continuing its partnership with CEFN in the near future.
