Remembering Beth Jones
Beth Jones was an ardent supporter of mental health causes and understood the importance of advancing the mission of Skyland Trail for the Atlanta community through volunteering and philanthropy. Ms. Jones served 15 years on the Skyland Trail Board of Directors and 11 years as a Board Emeritus.
She volunteered to chair the very first Benefits of Laughter in 1998. The event has since become the annual signature fundraising event for Skyland Trail, raising more than $18 million to support financial aid awards for qualifying clients and families. In 2003, Beth became a founding member of the Skyland Trail Associates, a group of women volunteers who help advance our mission through events and community involvement.
Ms. Jones passed away on December 28, 2022.
