Spreading Joy Daily: Evelyn Nominated for Her Unmatched Kindness and Warmth

Nominator Rebecca Borges shares, "I am nominating Evelyn because she is one of the most caring people I know. She is always willing to help anyone that needs it no matter the circumstance. She always greets everyone she sees on campus with a warm smile and makes everyone feel welcomed. One morning, while walking to the flagpole for our Friday school gathering, she was greeting other students and teachers with high fives and hugs. She spreads kindness daily with her actions, and I really appreciate that she has the ability to make people want to strive to be better versions of themselves."
