Jefferson’s Ferry’s John Sini Named Trustee of the Year by LeadingAge New York
Professional association for the senior adult care industry recognizes member of Board of Trustees.
South Setauket, NY, July 26, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Jefferson’s Ferry, a not-for-profit Life Plan Community, is justly proud of the contributions of John Sini, a 12-year member of its Board of Trustees. LeadingAge New York, the professional association for the senior adult care industry, recently validated John’s commitment to Jefferson’s Ferry and the needs of older adults, recognizing him as Trustee of the Year.
“John Sini brings a wide view, a sharp focus and an unwavering commitment to the Jefferson’s Ferry Board of Trustees,” said Robert E. Caulfield, President and CEO of Jefferson’s Ferry. “Over the course of more than 12 years, John has proactively and methodically made it a priority to understand the workings and challenges of a Life Plan community balanced with the concerns and insights of the residents and staff in mind.”
A longtime resident of Setauket who’s been extremely active in his community, Sini joined the Board of Trustees on the recommendation of the Mather Health Systems Inc., where he has served on the board for more than 36 years. Mather Health System Inc. is the corporate sponsor of Jefferson’s Ferry.
A CPA with a solid background in not for profit accounting, Sini is a board leader in financial matters. He heads Jefferson’s Ferry’s audit and finance committee, which oversees the annual audit, budget, and asset investment and serves on the Jefferson’s Ferry’s compensation committee. John plays a vital role in ensuring that Jefferson’s Ferry maintains policies that attract and retain highly qualified individuals while meeting New York State and IRS codes for tax exempt organizations.
As Jefferson’s Ferry is one of only three Life Plan communities on Long Island, many in the general public are unfamiliar with the Life Plan concept. “John serves as a drummer with clients, outside organizations, and acquaintances to let people know what Jefferson’s Ferry is about and how excellent it is,” added Caulfield. “His dedication as a Trustee runs deep, as demonstrated by his perfect attendance record. Over his 12 years of service, John has never missed a board meeting.”
Most importantly, John really cares about the whole of Jefferson’s Ferry, with residents and staff at the top of the pyramid. “It’s important to listen, address personal concerns, manage expectations and implement changes for the continued benefit of the entire community,” Sini said.
In addition to his work on the Jefferson’s Ferry, Mather Health Systems and Mather Hospital boards, John Sini has served on the boards of his local church, soccer league, and other organizations. “As the treasurer of a small organization, you do everything,” he explains, “but when you’re at the level of Jefferson’s Ferry or Mather, you’re overseeing management, approving the budget, projecting future financial needs and other major initiatives that will affect the long term organizational health and stability while working with management.”
