Shelter employees honored

Shelter Executive Director Linda Oberhaus congratulates Employee of the Quarter Vilma Rivero.

Congratulations to The Shelter’s Employee of the Quarter Vilma Rivero. Vilma was honored during the April 15 staff meeting during which she received a certificate and thanks from Executive Director Linda Oberhaus.

Vilma was nominated by her fellow co-workers, who shared these thoughts:

“Vilma consistently goes above and beyond for participants and co-workers. She is an extremely hard worker who always gives 100 percent. She goes out of her way to ensure the needs of emergency shelter residents are met, often working holidays and, if needed, on her days off. She never complains, always has a positive attitude and is very supportive of her co-workers. She is a pleasure to work with and is a valuable asset to the organization.”

Congratulations to Vilma! Thank you for truly making a difference for the families we serve!

Also recognized, April 15, was Rebecca Thompson, who received her five-year service pin and shared her beautiful cake with everyone.
