Testimonials

"Community Enrichment Fitness Network provides an awesome opportunity to give back to the community. CEFN events offer great activities and social engagements for older adults. Energizing movement and healthy eating habits are their pillars that encouraged me to get involved. Superb venues and great entertainment makes CEFN social activities a “must attend” event. CEFN’s leadership pays close attention to details. Quality supportive teams and volunteers are strategically put in place to create a beautiful gala experience filled with sophistication, inclusion and inspiration. I am proud to be a CEFN Volunteer and invite you to become one as well." - Joyce Scott

"My name is Wayne Hunter, and I volunteered for CEFN’s’ eighth annual Senior Gala extravaganza fundraiser on April 14, 2023. I assisted with various tasks and generally tried to be helpful. I found the experience to be excellent. As director of a nonprofit and business owner, I know firsthand the hard work and level of organization it takes to pull off an event of that size. Bravo! I welcome the opportunity to contribute to their next project." - Wayne Hunter
