OUR STORY

---

Jenny has lived in Jordan since 2005 with husband John, three children Max , Colby and Sarah. Jenny and her husband ran a non-profit organization for 11 years, The Chloe T Foundation, whose mission was to donate stuffed animals to children hospitalized in the Metro Area.   Since making the decision to move to the Jordan School district she has volunteered in many parental capacities within the schools and as the days grew closer to her children graduating, she wanted to find a way to continue to give back to the schools that have given so much to her children.  JEF was an opportunity that spoke to her and had a lot of meaning for supporting not only students through additional education, but also enhancing the educational aspects for students as they move through the Jordan Schools.  

Karen moved to Jordan in 2000.  She has a degree in Fluid Power and is the owner of Universal Power Conversion, Inc. UPC is a distributor of Hydraulic, Pneumatic and Automation Components.  She started with the company in 1998 and purchased the company in 2007. Karen became interested in being involved with JEF because of her background in technology and her strongly supporting putting trade skills (STEM type programs) in our students' hands. Along with being a part of JEF, Karen is involved in Jordan Commercial Club, Jordan Area Food Shelf, her local church and Heimatfest. She loves being able to give back to the community she is a part of.
