Congratulations to Karen Andrade-Mims, CEO Emeritus of The Father Center of New Jersey, the 2025 recipient of the Liz Erickson Volunteer Impact Award. Karen was honored for her extraordinary leadership and unwavering commitment to serving the most vulnerable in our communities.
The Father Center of New Jersey was a proud sponsor of this year’s Impact Awards, presented each year by Nonprofit Connect.
“This honor recognizes more than volunteerism—it recognizes vision with sleeves rolled up. Karen has lifted communities by lifting fathers, and we are all better for her example,” says Bryan Evans, CEO of The Father Center of New Jersey.
