Linda Ford
Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Volunteer of the Month
January 2008
Multiple people wrote to NILMDTS nominating Linda Ford for volunteer of the month (VOM), and the honor is overdue! In her tenure with NILMDTS, Linda has provided more than 1,500 remembrance images for families. From her hometown of North Olmsted, Ohio, Linda serves as an Area Coordinator for the Cleveland metropolitan area.
"Just a week ago, Linda photographed four different babies over seven days," wrote fellow Area Coordinator, Patrick Rice. "This is not the first time she has been this busy and it certainly won't be the last time," he stated. Linda recently paid her own way to Colorado to become a NILMDTS Certified Trainer, and she will be performing training seminars in the future. Our staff and leadership team at headquarters would like to thank Linda for her amazing dedication to this organization.
Congratulations, Linda, you are clearly due this honor!
A huge thank you to all of our wonderful Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Volunteers!
The Process for choosing the Volunteer of the Month
The Co-Founders select the Volunteer of the Month by considering many deciding factors including -- Nominations from families, hospitals and fellow photographers
- The nominee’s established leadership in their community
- And their hard work following the necessary guidelines within NILMDTS including completion and logging of consent forms.
Nominations should be e-mailed to headquarters@nilmdts.org with the subject line of "VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH NOMINATION". The Headquarters Office will accept nominations at any time throughout the month.
Each NILMDTS Volunteer of the Month receives a congratulatory plaque which can be proudly displayed in their studios as well as a profile here throughout the month of their award.
This is a wonderful way for us here at NILMDTS to recognize the outstanding achievements and the giving nature of ourvolunteer base.
Thank you to each and every one of you!
