Salma Preppernau
Check out the amazing work our Member is doing! Susan is currently serving as a Confluence AmeriCorps Member with Trash for Peace as a Sustainability Education Coordinator.
Susan’s primary objectives are to educate youth and community about sustainability through hands-on learning and to help to implement, improve, and expand the Education Program that serves to economically and socially empower participants.
We had the opportunity last week to visit Susan at the Fairview Community Center and see her lead some awesome kids in creating some crafts. The kids love to color! Susan is patient and enthusiastic, her optimism is infectious, and you can tell the kids enjoy being around her. Thank you for your service, Susan, we are lucky to have you!
We visited Susan last week as a part of AmeriCorps Week. AmeriCorps Week is an opportunity to recognize the dedication and commitment of those who have chosen to serve their community through AmeriCorps and to encourage others to follow their footsteps in service. We’re continuing to celebrate Members like Susan and share their stories of service. Thanks for celebrating with us!
