JOHN CHALUPKATREASURER
John is a retired corporate chief auditing officer and currently a sole practitioner with a small CPA practice. His wife Paula and he live in Bedford, Texas, and have two grown, daughters, six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. He currently is Certified Public Accountant licensed by the State of Texas and a retired Certified Fraud Examiner; and in his spare time enjoys golfing and volunteering at my church. John says “after a family tragedy many years ago, my daughters and I benefited from grief counseling services. While beneficial, such services came at quite an expense and fortunately, we were financially able to afford them. I have since become aware of several who were less fortunate and could not access professional counseling. He supports The Workshop because (1) The Workshop provides an “affordable” and unique counseling resource to those in need and (2) it does so grounded upon Biblical principles and the teachings of Jesus.”
