Please join us in congratulating former Greater Rochester Health Foundation Board Chair and longtime board member Connie O. Walker for being recognized with the Adolf J. Rodenbeck Award from the Monroe County Bar Association for her outstanding professionalism and community service!
A respected legal leader and dedicated volunteer, Walker played a critical role in shaping the Health Foundations work, including serving two terms as Board Chair during the COVID-19 pandemic and leading the executive search for the Foundation’s current President & CEO Matt Kuhlenbeck. Walker's leadership and longstanding commitment continue to leave a lasting impact across the legal, healthcare, and nonprofit sectors in our region.
