El Dorado, AR - At SHARE Foundation’s Annual Employee Meetings, Dr. Brian Jones, President and CEO, announced the “Linda Stringfellow Spirit of SHARE” Award winners for 2024.
The “Spirit of SHARE” Award was created in 2004 to recognize employees of SHARE Foundation who go above and beyond their everyday duties. In 2017, the award was renamed in honor of retiring SHARE President/COO Linda Stringfellow to the “Linda Stringfellow Spirit of SHARE” Award. Employees who have been with SHARE for at least one year are eligible with the exception of the President/CEO.
Nominees are made by fellow SHARE employees and are evaluated on their willingness to go the extra mile, as well as their compassion, loyalty, responsibility, and integrity toward their co-workers, patients, and members. An anonymous committee of the SHARE Foundation Board reviews the nominations and makes the selections.
This year there were two finalists and one overall winner. Both finalists received an engraved award and an EXTRA day of paid vacation. The winner received an engraved plaque and an additional week of paid vacation.
The following comments are from the nomination forms. The finalists in no particular order:
Diego Valero, HealthWorks Fitness Center Lead Lifeguard
Diego takes his job so seriously. He is so sweet. If there is a question or a need to be filled his name always comes up. Diego goes above and beyond, takes initiative, and is passionate about his job. He is always looking for ways to improve himself. Diego is one of my favorite co-workers and is invaluable to our team. He is good, helpful, and impactful to our department.
Holly Monroe, Father Bob Allen Charitable Clinic Executive Director
Holly goes above and beyond and is always willing to step in, even when not required. I can go to her with any question or concern and I can confidently say she will do everything to find a solution and/or take care of it, in a professional manner. She is always responsive to emails and data requests. Holly is always smiling and I don’t think I’ve ever seen her in a bad mood. She always makes you smile with some silly story.
The overall 2024 Linda Stringfellow Spirit of SHARE Award winner – Sabrina Yeasky the SHARE Foundation Payroll and Administrative Clerk. Those who nominated Sabrina said, “Everyone likes her smile. She beams at whoever looks her way. Sabrina’s had a tough year but continues to be as cheery as ever. She is always asking if she can do anything for you. Sabrina came to me a few times with treats saying she thought of me at a meeting and grabbed what I like. Her smile is so friendly and inviting. Sabrina has a great spirit and energy that embodies the SHARE values.”
Congratulations to the 2024 Linda Stringfellow Spirit of SHARE award winners.
