The Annual Strictly Business Awards Luncheon

Over 1,000 business and community leaders attended this year's Strictly Business luncheon and awards ceremony to celebrate success in the workplace. Through the generous support of our corporate sponsors and individual contributors, we raised over $330,000 that will be used to provide job placement, career counseling, technology and skills training programs - services that are critical in today's competitive job market.

As part of the special JVS 30th anniversary celebration, the luncheon paid tribute to former JVS clients and their successes. In the JVS celebration video, Mayor Gavin Newsom, John Goldman and Dick Kovacevich confirmed that our city confronts enormous challenges.

Abby Snay, Executive Director of JVS agreed, “We have to make sure that the residents of San Francisco have the skills and training to fill the positions businesses need and to earn wages that enable them to support themselves and their families in our region with the highest cost of living in the nation.”
