Cathleen Foley, a senior tax manager at Braintree CPA firm KAF Financial Group, has been named to the board of directors of the Friends of the South Shore Hospital and will serve as secretary.

"It is an honor and privilege to be asked to participate on the board of The Friends of South Shore Hospital," said Foley. "The involvement that I have had over the past several years with the hospital’s affinity group LINKS (Leaders Involving a New Kind of Support) has demonstrated to me, first hand, that the amount of goodwill generated by being involved with the Friends comes back to you personally in far greater ways and at unimaginable greater levels."

"It’s a pleasure to announce Cathy’s appointment to this worthy volunteer group," said Kenneth Kirkland, managing partner of KAF Financial Group. "Her devotion and involvement is admirable."
