Helping People Succeed hosted their Annual Meeting and welcomed new Governing Board Members Artie Manfredi and Jill Marasa and Foundation Board Member Rob Whitlach. The most rewarding highlight of the meeting was the presentation of Community Awards. Elizabeth Barbella, John Doody and Bunny Webb represented the Community Foundation of Martin – St. Lucie and were recognized for their ongoing support of Helping People Succeed and the community at large. The PNC Foundation was recognized for their contributions towards early learning literacy and Julia Kelly and Chris Perry were honored for their many years of support of the Art for Living Calendar and their dedication and commitment to Helping People Succeed.
Helping People Succeed also celebrated those calendar underwriters who have been supporting the Art for Living Calendar since its inception – 25 years ago! Those underwriters include Marky Kay Buckridge, Deb Duvall of Water Pointe Realty Group, Phil Faherty of Stuart Business Systems, Christine Mulrooney representing NisAir, Rich Ross of Ross Mixers and Ed Weinberg of EW Consultants. The award presentation closed with the Tom Warner Advocacy Award. This award was presented to Jeanine Webster and Mel Nobel. Jeanine and Mel have been staunch supporters of Helping People Succeed for many years. We are thankful for their thoughtful philanthropic spirit!
Though chair persons Heidi Bosley and Claire Nash will continue as chairs for the next fiscal year, they too, were given recognition for their previous roles on the boards. We had one outgoing board member, Michael Borlaug, who was recognized for his outstanding service and for all the contributions he has made to the organization over the last several years.
Last but not least, CEO Suzy Hutcheson updated the guests on where Helping People Succeed has been, where we are today and what the future holds. Presented with flowers, Suzy was given a standing ovation for her 50 years of dedicated service and commitment! It was a lovely evening, surrounded by caring individuals, who believe in our mission and the success of those who we serve!
