NHEG Recognition Day is an annual event where we recognize students and staff for their hard work and dedication to improving a student’s education. So, we like to recognize the following people for their work in 2016-2017.
Vanh Vue, Raleigh, NC, was named Tutor of the Year. Ms. Vue has been a tutor with NHEG since February 2015. She tutors Math and Science and donates six hours a week of class time. She has also created many pre-recorded classes for students over the years. What is even more incredible about this accomplishment is that she is blind. Pamela Clark, Executive Director, stated, “Nothing holds her back. She is an incredible person and an inspiration to everyone that works with her.”
Savleen Grewal, Brampton, ON, another tutor with NHEG, received the Outstanding Tutor Award. Ms. Grewal has been a tutor with NHEG since July 2016. She is from Ontario, Canada and tutors online for three hours a week. Pamela Clark, Executive Director, stated, “Ms. Grewal is always positive and has made such a difference. We are fortunate to have someone so caring and giving.”
Frani Wyner, Monroeville, PA was named Photographer of the Year. She has been with NHEG since December 2016. Pamela Clark stated, “Ms. Wyner is a professional and incredibly gifted photographer. She is everything we could ask for in a volunteer and photographer.”
Furthermore, at the event, two volunteers were recognized with Presidential Volunteer Service Awards. Roberta Perkins, Luckey, Ohio, received the Gold Medallion, Certificate and Letter from the President. Roberta has been part of NHEG since 2009. Pamela Clark said, “Roberta has been a trusted and loyal member of our team for many years. We couldn’t ask for a more sincere and hard-working team member than Roberta Perkins.”
