In that role she built the organisations offer to volunteer for both individuals as well as corporations. She was pivotal in getting the soup kitchen off the ground and growing it over the years into an event weekly preparing food and serving several hundred people. To that extent she recruited, trained, managed volunteers, as well as volunteer leaders, while always remaining with 'hands on deck'. It was a real honour to work with Patricia, and I hope I will have this pleasure again sometime in the future. " and "Patricia was the volunteer coordinator when I was working at Cisco Japan and became interested in establishing a formal relationship between Cisco and Second Harvest Japan. Patricia was an invaluable partner in getting the relationship set up formally which resulted in monthly volunteer activities at the Saturday Soup Kitchen as well as establishing matching funds from Cisco for all volunteer hours by Cisco employees. Thanks to Patricia, we were able to establish a relationship that included not only volunteer activities but also donation campaigns and food drives which are still in existence today. Patricia is successful because of her excellent communication skills, her collaborative nature, her focus on details and her positive attitude."
