Congratulations to our dear friend and long-time YWCA supporter Betty Schoenbaum for being named the Sunday Gazette-Mail's 2008 West Virginian of the Year! Betty shares the YWCA's vision for making our community a better place - especially for our children. Her charitable philosophy is never void of purpose, and she truly involves herself in each project she supports. Over the past decade, Betty and her foundation have contributed more than $200,000 to the YWCA of Charleston because she wholeheartedly believes in our programs and sees our organization as an invaluable asset to our community. With her help, we continue to change the lives of women and children each day in the Greater Kanawha Valley.
At age 91, Betty still lives her life with energy, generosity, and purpose. Congratulations, Betty, for your deserving accolade! Read more about her inspirational story in the Gazette-Mail.
