"Give Them Roots and Create Wings"

Annual Celebration Dinner

We had a lovely evening and record attendance at this year’s Celebration Dinner held at the Bemis Center on the St. Norbert campus. EPH Executive Director, Crystal DeCleene, shared news about two additional home purchases and another that was generously donated. We heard from three women whose success stories tugged at the heartstrings, and make what the staff, many volunteers and financial supporters contribute all worthwhile.

This year’s Duane Howell Service award went to Paul and Lee Fischer. Paul and Lee have coordinated the EPH garden for several years, which supplies fresh produce to families living in EPH homes, and Paul previously served as an exterior coordinator for one of the transitional homes. We are grateful for their hard work, dedication and kind hearts.

Watch for delivery of the next EPH newsletter for further details regarding these families and their successes and other information shared at the dinner. The newsletter will also be posted to the EPH website.
