The president and CEO of Greenfield Partners, LLC, in Connecticut, Eugene Gorab has led the private-equity real estate firm he founded for more than 20 years. Also involved in community service work, Eugene Gorab has served as the director the Appalachia Service Project. Founded in 1969 by a United Methodist minister, the Appalachia Service Project organizes volunteers to perform major home repairs for people living in central Appalachia who otherwise would not be able to afford them. To date, some 410,000 volunteers have helped transform more than 18,000 homes into safer, drier, and warmer shelters for the families who live there. Structured as more than just home-repair assistance for low-income families, the Appalachia Service Project also offers benefits to its thousands of annual volunteers who have the chance to build transformative relationships with each other, staff, and the families they serve. The organization believes its work strengthens communities and enhances the lives of everyone involved by breaking down cultural, social, and economic barriers that usually keep people separate.
