Megan - San Francisco, CA

Megan is an all-star ambassador! She was our top fundraiser for our 2022 San Francisco Friendship Walk and spoke at our local Leadership Conference in San Jose. She is employed through our Jobs program at Trader Joe’s and shines bright in her role. Her supervisor received feedback from a customer that said, “Megan is the best! She was such a great help when I was shopping. We love coming into the store now and knowing she is there to help us and others." We are so proud of you, Megan!
