Summer Speaker—Interfaith Works: Helping Neighbors in Need with Sam Taylor
Interfaith Works is a nonprofit that provides emergency shelter, supportive housing, essential needs, and employment programs to over 35,000 residents of Montgomery County, MD, every year. IW was founded in 1972 by local faith communities who saw Montgomery County residents in need and felt collaborative action was the best way to help them. Today, Interfaith Works is not a religious organization, but we maintain our original spirit of striving to provide Montgomery County residents in need with the best possible assistance through our various programs.
Sam Taylor serves as the Faith Partnerships Coordinator for Interfaith Works. He has been in this role since March of 2022. Before that, he worked at Charles E. Smith Jewish Day School, where his fiancé, Courtney, still works. Sam’s work is focused on creating and sustaining the vital partnerships between Interfaith Works and the abundant faith communities in Montgomery County. Sam and his fiancé attend Congregation Or Chadash in Damascus, MD.
