2009 Education Volunteer of the Year in Chattanooga

Evelyn Webb was recognized as the 2009 Education Volunteer of the Year by United Way's Volunteer Center at the Annual "Volunteer United" Volunteer Awards Banquet, held in celebration of National Volunteer Week and our local volunteers. Evelyn is more than 80 years "young" thanks to her young charges she helps care for every day at the 21st Century Learning Center in East Lake. A retired nurse assistant, Evelyn goes to the center every day to play with, read to, cuddle with and sing to the children there. She knows that loving socialization helps children between the ages of birth to 3 develop a better vocabulary and become ready for school by age 5.
