Captain Jeffrey Hoffberger

Captain Jeff is a retired Merchant Marine Captain, who still very much enjoys life on the water!

Jeffrey has been a long standing supporter of the Chris Klug Foundation, and along with his brother, Russell, has been an integral part of Wine & Dine for over 15 years. Jeffrey was introduced to the gift of life when his mother experienced kidney failure and was placed on dialysis. She would become a two-time kidney transplant recipient. During her transplant journey, Jeffrey was a huge support for her, and helped throughout dialysis and post-transplant.

Jeffrey himself is a knee ligament and tendons recipient, making the mission even closer to his heart, and giving him experience as both a tissue recipient and transplant family member. Jeffrey is not only on the CKF Board of Directors, but also President of the philanthropic foundation, “The Judith & Stanley Hoffberger Family Foundation,” and trustee on another Foundation!
