These individuals help improve their schools and their communities in ways that will allow these children to be fully included in all aspects of their daily lives.Winners were honored at a ceremony on Wednesday, April 25 at The Friday Center in Chapel Hill. A $500 cash award, a special trophy, and a letter of commendation was bestowed upon the recipients at this prestigious event attended by family, peers, leaders, and the community.
Way to go, Amy!
