LEXINGTON — Local volunteer Kate Hilterman, of Lexington, was recently recognized for countless hours of service to the community during a Modern Woodmen of America member event on April 29.
Kate Hilterman was honored through Modern Woodmen’s Hometown Hero Program for her commitment to the community by donating of her time and a portion of her proceeds from her business to local non profits.
As part of the Hometown Hero Program, members of the Mansfield Modern Woodmen Chapter presented Kate with a certificate and a $100 award grant to be donated to the charitable organization of the honoree’s choice.
Kate selected Richland Pregnancy Services to receive the donation.
“Volunteers form the foundation of a strong community,” says Brian Souder, local Modern Woodmen volunteer leader. “Modern Woodmen’s Hometown Hero Program gives us the chance to thank those who selflessly give their time to make the world a better place.”
Coordinated by local Modern Woodmen members, the fraternal financial services organization’s Summit chapters, chapters and youth service clubs provide opportunities for members to take part in social and educational activities and volunteer projects to meet local needs.
