Patty Vastakis

Like many of the other FOCUS staff, Patty volunteered for FOCUS before coming on staff. Her sister Anna found FOCUS after the premature birth of her son, Nick, in 1989. Their big Greek family surrounded Anna and her family after Nick’s birth, but they did not know exactly what to do to help. FOCUS helped Anna find resources and information after Nick was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, and Anna became a regular at share group. Patty volunteered with Anna at the very first FOCUS fashion show, then she helped at the dinner dance, and soon after was recruited as the office manager. Patty’s family continues to support FOCUS, out of gratitude and admiration for the wonderful children and families.
