Faith - The Gjenvicks are active attenders and serve at Northridge Fellowship church in Rogers. In addition, support a number of causes including missions and a local crisis women's clinic. 

Family - Johan married his high school sweetheart, Laura. They have four wonderful children; Sydney (15), Stella (13), Cooper (11), Celia (8), and the best dog in the world, Tucker.

Fun - All four of Johan's children are active in musical theatre. In addition, Johan coaches and serves as an advisor to the youth lacrosse board. The family seeks adventure through travels to state and national parks, as well as warm beaches of Florida in the cold winter months in Minnesota. 

Lending a Hand in the Community

As part of Northwestern Mutual, we are proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:

Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)

ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.
