12 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | MAY 2020 | EPAP welcomes Dennis Anderson and Brandie Perez as new members of the Executive Team. Here's an introduction to each of them: Dennis Anderson moved to Sun Lakes in 2003, and joined EPAP as the Program Manager of District 23 that same year. In 2007, he became the District's EPAP Coordinator. Before moving to our community, he was a first responder in several companies, and had the necessary Red Cross first aid certifications. He realized the value of an organization like EPAP and eagerly volunteered for the Executive Team. Brandie Perez has visited her parents here with family since the beginning, and moved here herself in November, 2019. Her parents' neighbors were all like family, which is what attracted her to become a member of EPAP's Executive Team. She started working in Water Rescue when she was 16, and over the years has traveled to Honduras and other countries to provide medical care and education. She goes out on her bike to provide medical care to the homeless, listen to their stories, and help them get their lives back. She's also led trauma teams in many companies. Brandie is a member of FEMA, a Flight Medic, and she leads the National Disaster Strike Team nationwide. EPAP enthusiastically welcomes Dennis and Brandie to the Executive Team. Zone Captains Role In Connecting SLCC The health of all our residents is paramount. So, with a heavy heart, the Sun Lakes Charitable Trust Board has decided to cancel the 2020 Charity Week. Perhaps the greatest loss is to the two dozen or more charities we support. We have heard from so many of them, time and time again, that they wouldn't be able to supply the services they do without our help. We will not try to reschedule Charity Week for another time this year, but that's not to say we won't be looking at other fund-raising options, perhaps towards the fall. Thank you to all of the committees, sponsors and individuals who have already put time and effort into this event. We will plan on our 2021 Charity Week being the same theme of Island Dreams!
