We're All Gods Children Board of Directors
Carol has been volunteering in leadership positions since 1984. During the twelve years she lived in Levittown, PA she was actively involved in Girl Scouts USA holding a variety of positions. In 1989, she founded B-PURE (Bucks People United to Restore the Environment), a grassroots organization concerned with local environmental issues and policies. While dealing with solid waste issues, she came in contact with individuals from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Environmental Resources, and many local and state representatives. In 1991, she was elected as President of the Pennsylvania Environmental Network (PEN), a statewide organization networking local grassroots groups on a variety of environmental issues. There, she honed her skills in public speaking and was frequently interviewed by local media. She continued her involvement with PEN for over ten years. Carol worked on many legislative issues and was instrumental in the passing of The Pesticide Notification Act, which allows parents access to information on pesticides being used in their children's schools. Carol feels that her driving passion throughout her life has been her involvement in the medical field. She started at the age of sixteen by becoming a Red Cross volunteer at a local hospital. Throughout the years, she has continued that desire to help others by working in a hospital and a residential home, and also in the home healthcare field. She became an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) after moving to Lancaster County in 1993 and volunteered with two ambulance associations in Southern Lancaster County. Although Carol brings to the board her leadership skills and her empathy for others, she realizes that, only through the wisdom and guidance of the Holy Spirit, are these things possible. Carol and her husband Tom currently reside in Lancaster County. They have been married for over thirty years and have raised two daughters, Alicia and Christa.
