I am a retired School Nurse-Teacher (27½ yrs) from the Mt Vernon Bd of Education. I then worked with the Community Opportunity Program as a nurse at Whitney Young Head Start Program and the St. Joseph's Children Center.
I started volunteering long before I retired in 2000. I volunteer with the Visiting Nurses, doing blood pressure screening and counseling at our two senior centers in Harrison, N.Y. I also volunteer at the following places:
- Lord's pantry (making sandwiches and meals for H.I.V. patients and families).
- White Plains Hospital - as Eucharistic Minister
- West Harrison Senior Center every Thursday.
- Westchester Community College (at the Italian Club)
- SOS Medicare - "Senior Out Speaking" on Medicare (started in 2000).
In 2005 I was inducted in Westchester County Senior Hall of Fame (special recognition)
2003 I received the "Book of Golden Deeds" by The Exchange Club
I received a BSN from St. John's University in 1961.
In 1964 I received an M.A. from New York University. I was inducted into the Kappa Delta Pi - International Honor Society of Education.
