Lenox Library's Lecture Series to Feature Berkshire United Way CEO
LENOX, Mass. — Lenox Library will continue its Distinguished Lecture Series on Sunday, Jan. 26, 2025 at 4:00 p.m., when Tom Bernard, President and CEO of the Berkshire United Way, will discuss his organization's 100th Anniversary.
Berkshire United Way, originally founded as the Pittsfield Community Fund Association in 1924, has evolved over the past century to address the changing needs of Berkshire County. To mark its 100th anniversary, President and CEO Tom Bernard will present a lecture on the organization’s history and future vision.
Bernard, who has led Berkshire United Way since 2022, previously served as mayor of North Adams and has an extensive background in public service, education, and nonprofit leadership. In addition to his role at Berkshire United Way, he holds leadership positions in statewide and local organizations focused on community development and civic engagement.
Now in its 18th season, the Distinguished Lecture Series is organized and hosted by Dr. Jeremy Yudkin, a resident of the Berkshires and Professor of Music and Co-Director of the Center for Beethoven Research at Boston University. Lectures are free and open to the public.
