🎉CELEBRATING AN INCREDIBLE WOMAN🎉
Happy belated birthday to Louise Carnevale, who recently turned 108!!!
Louise is an extraordinary person who fights for what she believes in and creates lasting change. She did just that with the Environmental Studies Council, the organization that raises money for the one-of-a-kind learning provided by the Environmental Studies Center.
Over the years, Louise and the Council have funded each new hire's salary and provided additional money to enhance the Center’s program.
"Her presence in the community has had a long reach, including environmental activism and politics. Her small stature belies her dogged determination," Valerie Gaynor, Director of the ESC, said.
Louise shows us all what it truly means to be #ALLINMartin👊

"We remember those who were called upon to give all a person can give, and we remember those who were prepared to make that sacrifice if it were demanded of them in the line of duty, though it never was. Most of all, we remember the devotion and gallantry with which all of them ennobled their nation as they became champions of a noble cause."
- Ronald Reagan, 40th President of the United States of America
