🌟 Board Member Spotlight: Suzanne Killmer 🌟
Suzanne Killmer's connection to Centus spans more than 35 years and three generations of family involvement in the Solihten Network.
"It is in the Killmer genes!" Suzanne says. Since 1990, she and her family have supported the organization's mission in countless ways—from volunteering at fundraisers to serving on staff and in leadership roles. After retiring to Denver, Suzanne was honored to join the Centus Board of Directors while her husband, Mark, became a spiritual consultant with Centus.
One of the most rewarding parts of Suzanne's board service has been seeing firsthand the impact of Centus' Susan's School of Counseling program. "Providing counseling where students spend much of their day makes such a difference," she shares. Suzanne also serves on the committee that organizes Centus' annual fundraiser, helping ensure that children and families can access counseling regardless of their ability to pay.
Outside of volunteering, Suzanne and Mark enjoy road biking, hiking, and exploring national parks throughout the western United States. "The mountains, blue skies, and miles of bike trails are what drew us to Denver," she says.
When asked what she would want others to know about Centus, Suzanne's answer is simple: "For 35 years I have witnessed how this organization continues to grow because its heart is in the right place. It offers help and hope to those in need of healing, with a special focus on children's mental health."
Thank you, Suzanne, for your family’s decades of dedication and for helping ensure that more children and families have access to the mental health support they deserve. 💙
