LEADER OF THE PACK 5K & FUN RUN SUPPORTS CISRC
Wednesday, January 6, 2010 12:01 pm
Amy Revis, CISRC Site Coordinator for Spindale Elementary, began her day with her annual review and the welcome news her position had been funded for the coming year, thanks in part to this event. Amy has been the one to shepherd the prototype back pack program through its first year in Rutherford County, starting with 12 children and ending with 46. Revis told us, “It has been a year of laughter and awe as we’ve seen the impact of the simplest things- a pop tart or a can of Vienna Sausages- make a difference for a child.” Charlotte Epley, Executive Director of CISRC, went on to say, “Because of Amy’s effort and the ground swell of support from our community partners, we look to expand the back pack and mentoring program. As we add school sites and coordinators we enable an increase of services to children throughout the county.” Both Epley and Fuller serve on the Leadership Rutherford Board and are passionate about Communities In Schools Rutherford County (CISRC).
