In January 2006, DPYS proudly announced the hiring of Boxborough resident Jonathan Kerr
to serve as our Youth Services Director. Jon brings to Danny's Place over 10 years of non-
profit administration experience and 20 years of experience working with youth. Prior to
joining DPYS, Jon held the position of Assistant Director and Business Manager at
Community Rowing, a 501(c)(3) located in Boston Ma. Community Rowing was founded in
1985 as a nonprofit organization and has become one of the largest rowing programs in the
United States with over 1,500 people rowing annually. Jon's experience, training and skills
provide an extensive background well suited for working with youth, financial administration,
operations and public relations.
Jon has made it his mission to be involved with youth throughout most of his adult life. He
started many years ago with work in various church youth groups as an advisor and leader.
For the past 20 years Jon has consistently volunteered his time teaching, mentoring,
educating and helping youth. He also has significant experience as a coach. From 1988 to
1996, Jon coached women's rowing for numerous clubs, schools and colleges and from
1997 – 2005 he coached high school rowing, as well as many adult programs, at
Community Rowing.
Jon's successful transition to our Youth Services Director clearly indicates he has the ability
to build effective teams of youth, staff and volunteers necessary to ensure the continued
success of Danny's Place. Please stop by Danny's Place to meet Jon during regular
operating hours.
