Volunteer of the week
This week’s Volunteer of the Week honor goes out to Beth Bennett.
For the past eight years Beth has donated her time and talents to the
Sacred Heart Elementary music students. She got started when her
children were in elementary school and she saw a need for more
involvement in the arts program. Since that time, she has made and
donated over fifteen hundred costumes to the school and has written
plays for and directed the students in sixteen musicals. Beth works in
each classroom voluntarily on props and ideas associated with each
musical, because she knows that the arts allow more avenues for children
to learn and apply classroom concepts. Beth has been described as a
blessing to Sacred Heart Academy, and it has been said that the musical
program would not be where it is today without her incredible talents
and efforts.
Beth Bennett, we thank you for your dedication to our community.
Congratulations on being Volunteer of the Week!

Campaign Progress |
We have reached
87.7% of our goal. This has been a tough year due to the economy,
rising costs in health insurance, unemployment, foreclosures, and other
unforeseen circumstances. We would like to thank each and every
donor this year that helped to make a difference in their community.
