Shawna Droese - Active of the Year
We are thrilled to announce Shawna Droese as our Active of the Year! Shawna has served the Auxiliary in many roles since she joined in 2006, as a former Vice President of Membership, Vice President of Program Services, Vice Chair of Decorations and Vice Chair of High Donor Events. Along with her husband Michael, Shawna also supports the Auxiliary through their San Mateo store, Steiner’s Jewelry. From hosted parties to the annual Luncheon raffle for a jewelry- shopping spree, Steiner’s is always helping the Auxiliary. You could say that Shawna is carrying on a family tradition of community service, as her mother, Mary Pulley was an original member (and President) of the first Parca Auxiliary. We congratulate Shawna as she always strives to give the Auxiliary her very best and is willing to lend a hand in any way she can!
Debbie Bocci - Sustainer of the Year
We are proud to honor our Sustainer of the Year, Debbie Bocci. Debbie, one of the original Founders of the Auxiliary, has selflessly dedicated her time and energy to the Auxiliary since its inception - 23 years ago. Last year she served on the Auxiliary Board as Sustainer Liaison where she continued to play an invaluable role in helping the Auxiliary remain relevant and one of the most important fundraising organizations on the Peninsula. The Auxiliary has greatly benefited from her valuable insights, ideas and perspective that can only come from having been an integral player in the Auxiliary since the beginning. We are proud to honor Debbie as Sustainer of the Year!
