We'd like to introduce you to local Jefferson Awards nominee, Eileen Eletto, of
Apollo Beach. She was nominated by Craig & Angelique Beggins. They shared the
following with us:
Eileen has become our company cheerleader. Every task she gets involved with becomes her top priority. She's amazing at generating support for even the most mundane tasks.
Easter Seals is our corporate charity, and Eileen as the project's leader, has made our
company one of the top Easter Seals supporters in the state. She's organized and
supported the Easter Seals walk with me charity event, our annual charity bazaar, car
washes and numerous other fundraisers.
In addition, leads our company's annual Toys for Tots drive. She helped our office find a family in need at Christmas, gathering support, money, toys and items of need, so that family may enjoy a wonderful holiday. Eileen is always willing to help and comes up with creative ways to get things done. She organizes vendors for our companies rallies and for our Broker Council rallies, a thankless job that she does with a huge smile on her face.
Everything Eileen does she does with passion and joy and others can't help but benefit from her attitude and commitment and genuine caring. Eileen is actively involved in her church, Providence Baptist Church in Riverview. She has co-taught the junior age girls Sunday School Class. She is also involved with the church nursery program. She's also worked as a volleyball coach during her daughter's school years at Providence Christian School. Eileen also attends the vesper service held at Sun Towers Assisted Living Facility in Sun City Center every Sunday. She can carry a tune, and often leads the songs for service. Not to leave out furry friends, Eileen is also a volunteer for the Florida Dachshund Rescue Association.
Most of Eileen's fellow workers and friends know that if you need help getting something done, either through volunteers or workers, she is one to get it done... always with a smile on her face an loads of enthusiasm.
When ABC Action News contacted her with news of the nomination, she told us:
"Others first!! God has blessed me with so much and because of that my
desire is to be a blessing to others. I am so thankful for so many things in my life,
especially my husband Joe, all of my family and my employers, Craig and Angelique Beggins. I just want to share my blessings with everyone!"
