Two Mansfield women named
Unsung Heroines of 2010
Mansfield
News
May
18, 2010
Mansfield
The Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women
has announced its 100 Unsung Heroines of 2010. These
women, chosen from hundreds of nominations this year,
come from cities and towns across the Commonwealth and
each will be recognized for their outstanding
contributions to their organizations and communities
in a ceremony on Wednesday, May 19, from 1 to 4 p.m.,
in the Great Hall at the State House in Boston.
The Unsung Heroines are women who don't make the news, but make the difference. They are the women who
use their time, talent and enthusiasm to enrich the
lives of others and make a difference in their
neighborhoods, cities and towns. They are mentors,
volunteers and innovators who do what needs to be done
without expectations of recognition or gratitude.
These women are the glue that keeps a community
together and every community has them.
The ceremony will include a program emceed by
NewsCenter 5's Liz Brunner acknowledging each of the
one hundred 2010 Unsung Heroines followed by a group
photograph on the Grand Staircase and a Just Desserts
reception.
This year's honorees include Mansfield residents Ellie
Lea;
a teacher in the science department at MHS
and Kimberly Piro.
Honorees will be featured in an event program
available to all in attendance.

The
Mission is the ultimate goal of Invisible Children. It
is the resources, skills, and funds that hit the
ground in Uganda. These resources will provide health,
safety and education for the children of Northern
Uganda who are affected by this 20-year-long war. It
is our belief that we need to live for more, because
the invisible children need more to live.
