Mrs. Springfield USOA 2021. Be the change, be a volunteer has been a lifelong passion of mine . Having been born an orphan back in the 60’s, I went through foster care as well as the adoption process here in the United States. Though I felt as an outsider looking in most of my life since I was placed with a family who had biologically born children in the family, I nevertheless, feel blessed that I had a roof over my head and food to eat. Having a family of my own is of high importance to me. Being able to overcome the diagnosis of infertility due to cancer cells within my reproductive organs, my husband Bruce and I were ecstatic to welcome the birth of our daughter in 2006. Feeling as if my life is bountiful I give back to others by serving as a volunteer for numerous organizations and helping orphans in need. We have personally provided and delivered care packages and supplies to orphans in Mexico and Africa. I feel that providing personal attention in the form of a party for the orphans is integral to providing hope for children to see that others do care. I am thrilled to be married to the man of my dreams, a mother to my miracle child and the referee to our two black labs.






Martin Luther King Celebration
HandsOn Network
January 2009
Happy Martin Luther King Day! Today, my daughter and I volunteered for the Martin Luther King Celebration hosted by the HandsOn Network. As the HandsOn Network Spokesperson, I was available to help the area children with various art projects celebrating the day. The kids made a poster with the motto: BE THE CHANGE BE A VOLUNTEER. They added their own personal touches for an inspiring piece of artwork! Channel 13 was present filming us as we made our poster. The kids get to see themselves on TV tonight!!
