| INSPIRATION |
| What motivates you to be such an
active volunteer? "I have been interpreting for 14 years,
and there are things that need to be done."
What accomplishment are you most proud of?"That this
organization got started with the help of my friends, husband
and daughter. I was blind as a child and got my sight back, so
helping the deaf and hearing impaired is a payback for me."
What is your personal philosophy or words of inspiration
to other philanthropists or people who are thinking of
volunteering? "Find a good cause and get involved. There
are a lot of people that need your help." |
