Dr. Bruce Frank and Enid Weisberg-Frank have devoted their lives to volunteering and aiding those in need. Their journey began with a simple act of kindness many years ago, when they encountered a man in Seattle who struggled to order a meal at a restaurant due to illiteracy. This encounter opened their eyes to the unseen members of our society and the importance of actively seeking opportunities to assist others.
The couple has since been actively engaged in various volunteer activities, from providing eye examinations for underserved children to volunteering at Congregation B’nai Amoona. Bruce, a retired ophthalmologist, has focused on providing care for people close to home, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their insurance status, receives equal care. His dedication to aiding others is truly inspiring.
Enid, on the other hand, has taken on the role of a Jewish educator, particularly for children with special needs. Her dedication to helping these children has led her to develop programs that cater to their specific needs, providing them with the education and support they need to thrive.
The couple’s dedication to volunteerism extends beyond their professional lives. They have instilled the value of giving in their own children, leading by example through their acts of kindness. Whether it is distributing nutrition bars to those in need or teaching students who cannot afford her services, Bruce and Enid have consistently found ways to assist others.
Their dedication to volunteer work is deeply rooted in their family’s multi-generational tradition of giving. Both Bruce and Enid have been inspired by their parents and grandparents, who were known for their compassion and generosity. They have truly embraced the value of tzedakah and mitzvah, making it an integral part of their lives.
Additionally, the couple’s friendship with Myra Rosenthal, a member of United Hebrew Congregation, has showcased the compassion and kindness they demonstrate. Myra spoke highly of their selfless nature, emphasizing how they quietly step in whenever they see a need.
Ultimately, Bruce and Enid Frank are shining examples of how one can make a meaningful impact through volunteerism. Their unwavering commitment to aiding others, whether through medical care, education, or emotional support, is a testament to the power of kindness and empathy.
As we look towards the future, let us all be inspired by the Franks’ dedication to volunteerism and strive to make a positive difference in the lives of those around us. Whether it is a small act of kindness or a significant volunteer endeavor, there is always an opportunity to make a difference in the world.
