A need on the island and the native islanders needing a voice, coupled with the initiatives that the Rotary had for children, she knew that it was the right place for her to be. “Kids just grab your heart. They should know that they are loved and appreciated. They should never be cold or without.” With that as her motivation, she became an active member of the Rotary, and for the last four years, she has been involved in their Safety Town Program and the committee chair for the Annual Happy Feet. As the chair of Happy Feet, and with the support of Belk’s, she coordinates over 50 volunteers and the donation of shoes, socks and jackets to island children in need. This year, she was able to serve over 270 children.
