Picking the right career and college or trade school has always been tricky. Given current events, it’s even more so now. The best career prep begins long before looking at colleges, vocational schools or financial aid packages. Did you know that 80% of college students change their majors at least once which can extend their schooling beyond the traditional 4 years and costs thousands?

In 2022 SEEDs of Hope transitioned to an all-volunteer-ran board, thus eliminating overhead expenses for staffing and allowing for 100% of the money raised from all services and programs to go directly back into that community!
I strive to give back to this great East Tennessee community that has blessed me so much and continue to make it a great place filled with people eager to serve each other.
I am a natural born humanitarian. I grew up volunteering with the Special Olympics every summer, volunteering at the local animal shelter, and fostering animals. During college I enjoyed working at my local community kitchen to feed the hungry as well as serve people with intellectual and developmental disabilities live their best life. I am excited to continue feeding my passion to give back to others in East Tennessee.

We should show up and help where we are needed. Not because it is expected, but because we can change a life.

I am extremely passionate about giving back to the Upstate NY community where I was raised and have chosen to stay to raise my family and work. SEEDs of Hope provides me with the platform to do just that.
My dad was a lifetime Rotarian and imparted to us the gift that volunteering mattered. Over the past 40 years, I have volunteered for my sorority, as a coach, in my church and on many boards. I have learned far more than I have been able to teach and received far more than I have been able to give. The rewards to serving are endless.
Volunteering in the Syracuse area fills me with a sense of purpose and community. Each experience not only allows me to contribute to important local initiatives, but it also strengthens my understanding of the challenges our community faces. The friendships and memories I create while volunteering remind me of the impact we can have when we come together to support one another.
I am fueled by a strong desire to make a difference and a deep appreciation for the wonderful East Tennessee community. I am dedicated to giving back and fostering an environment where everyone is eager to support one another, ensuring our community continues to thrive and grow.
Members of the SEEDs of Hope (SOH) team along with several staff members from S.E.E.D. Planning Group spent a wonderful day volunteering at the Broome County Humane Society (BCHS) this past month to celebrate the ‘Dog Days of Summer’.
BCHS staff were gracious enough to provide us with a very informed tour of their wonderful facility. The SOH team provided lunch for the employees and volunteered their time making treats for the dogs and cats while visiting with some residents. The Broome County Humane Society is a non-profit Animal welfare organization dedicated to preventing animal cruelty and finding homes for abandoned, abused, and homeless animals.
