WEDU Be More Awards 2018
On February 23, 2018, we had the opportunity to attend the WEDU Be More Awards ceremony to honor TDP board member Lisa Rooker, who was a finalist for the “Be More Involved/Mason Dixon Award for Volunteerism.” This award is bestowed upon the individual, family or group that has lent a unique voice to bring awareness, credence, support, or action to an issue or cause. TDP nominated Lisa for this prestigious award, and thanks to the votes of many community members, she was recognized as one of 6 finalists from many, many nonprofits throughout the entire Bay Area. While the award went to another nominee, the fact that Lisa was named a finalist out of approximately 25 original contestants is testimony to her amazing dedication to TDP and the patients who suffer.
