HEF ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT<br />
Anita M. Floyd<br />
Athough it has been a tough financial year, Hanover<br />
County Public Schools still has had a great year. The<br />
economy has had a severe impact upon the funding<br />
sources for Hanover County Public Schools and all school<br />
divisions. Budgets have been reduced sharply. All of the<br />
school employees have worked to have a very successful<br />
year in the face of these budget cuts. The need for the Hanover Education Foundation,<br />
however, is greater than ever. Our HEF sponsors and Board members have been<br />
fantastic this year, and we appreciate all of the gifts in the form of dollars and hard work.<br />
I would like to thank the generosity of the many contributors listed in this<br />
publication, as we would not be able to support Hanover County Public Schools without<br />
them. We also really appreciate the hard work of the Board members. In particular,<br />
I would like to recognize the Board members whose terms have ended this year. They<br />
are William E. Martin, Jr., William W. Johnston and John J. Leber. A special THANK<br />
YOU goes to Marty Martin for the great work he has done serving as Finance Chairman<br />
for the last three years. During his term, Marty was an invaluable steward for the funds<br />
entrusted to the HEF.<br />
News for <strong>2009</strong> – <strong>2010</strong>:<br />
• The Foundation raised over 246,000 in revenues and pledges.<br />
• The Foundation gave $55,000 in scholarships to 37 Hanover County students.<br />
• The Foundation awarded $16,500 to fund grants and assist teachers in the classroom<br />
thanks to Altria and Bank of America.<br />
• For the third year in a row, Michael Patrick, General Manager of Patrick Pontiac Buick<br />
GMC, presented George Herring, Hanover Teacher of the Year, with the use of a new<br />
vehicle for one year also covering the maintenance and the insurance. This gift is a<br />
great example of the support from a community business relationship that has been<br />
cultivated with the Foundation.<br />
• The Verizon Foundation gave $24,750 to be used to support the Reading Olympics.<br />
I look forward to another great year with the HEF.<br />
