Volunteer Spotlight: Sue Haessler

Sue – Program Leader for Leaps & Bounds

Sue Haessler is a retired speech-language pathologist who spent 34 years perfecting her craft. Once she retired she knew she wanted to volunteer in a community that would benefit from her experience. Covid delayed her a bit, but now she’s ready to give back. Sue is looking forward to working with the kids at GiGi’s Playhouse and wants to make a positive impact. She has already enlisted friends to join her in volunteering as well. Sue is currently assisting with the Leaps and Bounds program (age 2-5) on Thursday mornings at the Playhouse.
