Our own Sharon Flaim, West Suburban United Way Board President, was named Volunteer of the Year by Community Support Services on November 15.At an award reception held at the La Grange Park District, Sharon Flaim was honored for her volunteer efforts on behalf of one of our partner agencies, Community Support Services.
Community Support Services provides services to support the developmentally disabled and their families.
“What most people don’t realize is that Sharon volunteers not only as the President for West Suburban United Way, but also at about half of our partner agencies along with the Western Springs Rotary and the West Suburban Chamber of Commerce”, statedSharon Alberts, Chief Professional Officer of West Suburban United Way. “She is a truly remarkable woman.
Sharon, a gourmet cook, has even offered to cater a luncheon for the partner agency staff that has the most growth in their United Way Campaign this year. “I believe in challenging people to do their best for others”, says Flaim. “And the only way I know how to do that is by setting an example in my own life.”
Congratulations Sharon for the much deserved recognition. And thank you for all that you do for so many.
