Details of good work

• “Linda Adamo is very actively involved in the Holiday for Giving every year and has been doing this for years. She is one of the organizers who makes sure that many families get a Christmas filled with cheer and gifts for the children. She makes sure each family gets a box of food and toiletries too. And when she is not organizing Holiday for Giving she is working with The Sisters Project doing Pink Lady Lunches for 200+ people that is done at least twice a year where all profits go back to the Wallingford Community for anyone touched with cancer. Let me tell you these lunches are delicious and beautifully presented.”
  

Why do you feel is this person an Everyday Hero?
