meet our interns and volunteers
2022 Administrative Assistant
My name is Stephanie, I am one of the newest members of the ALL foundation. I have always loved helping people. Helping others is just one of the small ways I feel can make an impact in the world, which has always been one of the top goals in life. I fell in love with the art of storytelling from a young age. Whether through reading, writing, or getting caught up in a good movie or tv show, powerful stories and media have always fascinated me. In college I majored in Film and Media studies with the hope of one day sharing my own stories with the world.
I am excited to be with the ALL foundation and help them continue to grow!
2022 Volunteer Coordinator
My Name is Charlene Cotton, I'm a single parent of three wonderful children. For many years I have been involved with my church and at a private Christian school volunteering. During this time I have a bit of everything and worn many hats: bus ministry, nursery, chef, fundraising and sports and more.
At present, I'm employed as a food service teacher. My classes consist of mentally challenged individuals with disabilities as well as students with discipline issues.
While raising my three children I achieved my Associate's degree in Culinary Arts from the Art Institute Of Philadelphia. From there I became an Executive Chef with Sodexo for 11 years. Following that, I pursued my teaching certificate and became a food service teacher. Some of my hobbies include gardening, traveling, and enjoying spending time with my family. I really enjoy working with people which is why I excel in bringing individuals together to achieve a common goal.
I feel honored to be joining the ALL foundation as a Volunteer Coordinator especially being that I have already been a part of so many of their past events as a volunteer myself!
Thank you to our Three Pathfinders High school interns, Chelsea H, Evelia R, and Sadman H who collaborated during 10 weeks to volunteer at the ALL Foundation.
This collaboration was made possible through the NY board of education and AT&T.
2022 Social Media Intern
Hello, my name is Rachael W, and I am the Social Media Intern at The ALL Foundation. I am very excited to be a part of the team! I have an extensive clinical background as a Pharmacy Technician in both retail and hospital pharmacy. I fell in love with helping others in the pharmacy and decided I wanted to pursue a career where I can make a
difference through health and science communication. I am currently in my final semester as an undergraduate Public Health student, and my passion is health communication and social media. I share a deep connection with The ALL Foundation because I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, Connective Tissue Disease, as a college student. Thank you so much for this opportunity!
2022 Administrative Assistant Intern
I'm Deshna J K, and I'm really excited to join the team to help make a difference in the lives of others. I am currently in high school and am planning on going into Engineering so I can learn more about and create experiences that give back to the community. I run outreach clubs that work on solutions to learning gaps and manage businesses,
where I'm enthusiastic about using organization to connect deeply with more people. I appreciate that the ALL Foundation is passionate about bridging the autoimmune disease group with more knowledge and support and I can't wait to play a part in that impact!

others and sharing knowledge. Having an autoimmune disease, he looks forward to doing his part to help others living with similar challenges.
