2011 3M Community Volunteer Awardees

A Tireless VolunteerSince her retirement in 2002, Ardell Capuzzi has tirelessly

supported, with both time and talent, a long list of charities, fund drives, and special events within the greater Twin Cities community. Included in this list are many 3M CARES pro-grams where she has volunteered literally hundreds of hours of her time with dedication and enthusiasm. As examples of her support, whether working with the 3M Science Fair, the Mississippi River Challenge, Homeless Connect, or MS Walks she has been described as someone who dives in with a “speedy can-do attitude” and works diligently with a pleas-ant demeanor and always seems to make a difference to her fellow volunteers.

In addition to her activities with 3M CARES, Ardell is a 20-year member of the St. Paul East Side Lions Club where she provides a monthly newsletter. She also volunteers in the community in support of homebound senior citizens as a participant with Store to Door and as part of the Caregiver Support Program administered by the Catholic Charities of St. Paul and Minneapolis. In these roles, Ardell’s service may include working with seniors over the phone to coordinate their food orders or one-on-one interaction and to help with shopping or with other personal socialization needs for com-panionship and sharing.

Finally, Ardell somehow finds time at her church to sup-port chapel services, concession stands, funeral luncheons and special events. Whether weekends, weekdays, or on short notice, Ardell has been called a person you can count on to get things done. The life and spirit she demonstrates is a real and present blessing to all.

As a role model she has been called by at least one nomi-nator, “The person I want to be when I grow up.” Ardell’s $1,000 3M Foundation check went to St. Paul East Side Lions.

Art LynchChebeague Island, Maine

Making His Community Safer and StrongerOff the coast of Maine, just north of the city of Portland, one

finds the picturesque town of Chebeague Island. This island community is home to 2002 retiree Art Lynch, along with his 350 fellow year-round residents. Not long before retirement Art witnessed, first-hand, the aftermath of the 9/11 World Trade Center disaster and was moved by the bravery of the firemen as he worked with the local telephone company to help restore telephone services to the area.

Upon relocation to his new island home, and inspired by the aforementioned bravery and dedication, one of the first things Art did was to volunteer for the local fire department where he was assigned to a local engine crew. Rising to the rank of Lieutenant, Art’s involvement with the department grew quickly to include administrative and communications sup-port, as well as grants writing to obtain funds for badly needed equipment and training. According to Chief Ralph Munroe, Art’s dedication has proven to be a motivation to others and helped bring the department to a higher level of preparedness in response to emergencies.

In addition to his volunteer time with the fire department, Art has utilized his 3M experience to help upgrade the mainte-nance and reliability of local telecommunications services and to secure back-up power capability for the public safety build-ing — both capabilities vitally important to his remote island community. As one nominee shared, “Art is the kind of person who is unwilling to sit back in retirement and simply enjoy his golden years and instead has taken on the task of making his community both safer and stronger.” Combined with a “can-do” attitude and a fresh perspective on how to get things done, Art’s willingness to serve has made a big difference in the lives of those around him. Art’s $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Chebeague Island Fire Department.

2011 3M Community Volunteer Awardees

Helping People Feel At HomeDean and Lorraine, 3M retirees, certainly do work — and

enjoy it! The couple has acted as Neighborhood Family Part-ners with Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity since the program started in 1996. With well over 1,000 volunteer hours logged, they are the longest serving Neighborhood Family Partners in the Twin Cities.

Over the years, they have worked with 42 home buyers after the buyers moved into their new 3M CARES/Habitat homes. Quarterly meetings with the families during the first year follow specific forms and check lists and allow the new own-ers to get help on warranty items, discuss concerns and ask questions that range from insurance to just about “anything you can think of,” says Dean. He adds, “We make sure the family is healthy, the kids are doing well in school, that there are no financial stresses, and that the family is fitting into the neighborhood and the community.” He describes Habitat home owners as “humble, energetic, industrious. They are all very proud of their homes and the friends they have made dur-ing construction.”

The Wohlhuters enjoy the warm welcome they get during home visits. Sometimes the children get involved, helping to translate when English is not a first language for the parents—or they may just bring out their toys for show and tell. One large family made a circle of chairs and filled them with their children, relatives and neighbors for a home visit. Another family prepared a typical Ethiopian dinner for them. The rap-port developed between the families and the Wohlhuters often extends beyond the first year and the formal meetings.

Lorraine and Dean often volunteer for 3M CARES projects, as well. Both are involved in numerous activities at Wood-bury Lutheran Church. Dean’s other activities have included SCORE (Service Corps of Retired Executives) and the Nova-tion Credit Union board. For 15 years, Lorraine has volun-teered at area hospitals.

Dean and Lorraine say, “Our second career is volunteerism. Volunteering has been very rewarding. You meet the neatest people.” Their $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Twin Cit-ies Habitat for Humanity.

Lou SagedyGreenville, S.C.

Building Children’s Confidence Through New Shoes

For over twenty years Lou Sagedy has raised money so that hundreds, nay, thousands of children in need could proudly have shoes to allow them to go to school from kindergarten through high school.

Lou is a retired plant manager at the Greenville, S.C. 3M location, and spends about 40 hours a month seeking funds for Operation Shoehorn, the charity that funds the shoes. He travels to area civic groups to speak about the importance of shoes to children and solicits contributions to his charity. Op-eration Shoehorn also sells restaurant books to obtain money for new shoes for the young ‘uns.

Lou became aware of this need through his wife Joan and her local garden club members who were buying shoes for neighborhood children. When the woman who facili-tated the program was dying, Joan promised her that she and Lou would continue the project. This they did in a big way, expanding the project to the whole county. The total amount raised in the ensuing twenty years recently passed the $400,000 mark.

A community organization, Sunbelt Human Advancement Resources (SHARE), selects the children who are to receive the shoes. This organization is high in praise for Lou and his wife. SHARE staff writes, “These phenomenal individuals have made a lasting positive impact on the lives of the chil-dren and families that they have touched . . . They selflessly give of themselves and their own resources without expecting anything in return . . . the community and hundreds of chil-dren and families have benefited from Operation Shoehorn.”

A SHARE caseworker involved with the project expresses her admiration in this way — Operation Shoehorn “allows these unfortunate children to attend school without the fear of being bullied due to their appearance and it gives them a renewed confidence that fosters learning. Their facial expres-sion after receiving a new pair of shoes is priceless.”

Operation Shoehorn really helps the children where the rubber hits the floor. Lou’s $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Operation Shoehorn.

Ed ScharlauAustin, TexasProviding Water to Ethiopian Villages

Ed Scharlau is a doer. A six-week 2007 study on world hunger and poverty that he facilitated in his church, revealed that fresh water was a key ingredient for overcoming poverty. This was the reason that Ed’s friend, Dick Moeller, formed a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, Water to Thrive, to raise money to provide water wells for Ethiopian villages. Ed is a founding board member, an active speaker and fund raiser.

Ed and his wife, Rennie, visited Ethiopia in 2010 and, he says, were “overwhelmed by the thankfulness of rural Ethio-pians who now have fresh water” and that “our hearts were in our throats with the agony of the compelling requests from those who do not have fresh water.” So the Water to Thrive organization continued and has now provided over 230 wells serving over 130,000 rural Ethiopians.

For this extremely impressive project and other volunteer activities Ed was awarded the 2011 3M Retiree Community Volunteer Award. Ed also received the 3M Community Volun-teer Award in 1995 as an employee, for his work with home-lessness and hunger.

Ed and his family moved from St. Paul to 3M Austin 27 years ago, and he started volunteering at his church. This included serving as president of the Church Council, and member of the personnel committee for 15 years.

He assisted in the establishment of the Foundation of Reli-gious Studies of Texas in order to help create a religious study program at the University of Texas.

Ed has served as board chair of the Lutheran Foundation of the Southwest and has been on the board for 19 years.

He was on the board of the Capital Area Food Bank for a number of years. When they were having trouble keeping drivers for their 18-wheelers, Ed took the driving course, got a commercial driving license and climbed up in the cab to deliver food whenever there was the need. Ed’s $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Water to Thrive.

Jerry KettunenSt. Paul, Minn.

“Go-to Guy”After retiring in 2002, Jerry has managed to keep himself

very busy!For the past four years Jerry has been volunteering at the

Rondo Community Outreach Library’s Homework Center (nicknamed the SWAMP). He works with students of all ages on academic subjects. Jerry is known as the “go-to-guy” for the subjects of math and science. The Homework Center serves a diverse group — many are English Language Learn-ers who are struggling with their daily homework assignments.

Jerry brings enthusiasm, depth of knowledge, patience, and a genuine concern to each student’s needs. The staff at St. Paul Library note that Jerry brings his work ethic of organization, as well as discipline and goal-setting. When working with stu-dents struggling with English, he has been known to encour-age them by saying, “I wish I could speak another language as well as you speak English.”

Other Homework Center volunteer tutors also benefit from Jerry’s mentoring and compassion. He is more than a tutor. He prefers teaching students the skills they need to be self-suffi-cient and to confront future homework assignments on their own. This discipline will serve them throughout their entire educational career.

Even the staff at the St. Paul Library feels they have learned a lot from Jerry. Watching him tutor has been their delight as he shows his patience with students in every interaction. Kit Hadley, Library Director, said, “We’re so fortunate to have dedicated volunteers like Jerry as they make a great impact in our communities. Volunteers who share their interests and experiences enrich the services offered in our libraries.”

Jerry has a long history of service in the community. He also tutors students at the Barack and Michelle Obama Service Learning Elementary School in St. Paul.

Jerry’s enthusiasm and willingness to help students learn and grow in knowledge has been an inspiration to all who know him. Jerry’s $1,000 3M Foundation check goes to the Friends of the St. Paul Public Library.

Mike HafnerMaplewood, Minn.

Inspiring Students to LearnEach week for the last twenty-two years, Mike Hafner has

traveled to Eagle Point Elementary School to tutor first grade students. The students enjoy working with Mike because he makes each child feel important. He is both firm and fair and pays attention to each child’s strengths and weaknesses. He makes learning high-frequency words fun and motivating. He takes time to train students on life skills, manners, how to pay attention and what it takes to be a good student. The teacher Mike assists states, “Mike is the reason why so many of my students move on to second grade with a solid foundation in reading.”

In addition to tutoring, Mike has volunteered with Meals on Wheels for the past 25 years. His style of communicating is a valuable strength. He is cheerful and respectful, encouraging his clients and brightening their day. A conservative estimate of his service is 3,000 delivered meals and 450 hours of do-nated time.

And that’s not all. Mike has been donating blood periodi-cally for 30 years. The Red Cross supplies 40 percent of blood needed in the U.S., but only 50 percent of the donors give regularly. Mike is one of the few who responds to the call for platelet donations monthly. These platelets meet vital needs for those patients undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplants or those with weakened immune systems.

Mike exemplifies the 3M spirit to help his community. His $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Gladstone Meals on Wheels.

Orville UggenHartford City, Ind.

Keeping History AliveOrville Uggen has a passion for the American Civil War. For

20 years Orville has been the driving force behind the Civil War Reenactment Days, an event that brings many visitors to Blackford County, Indiana. He also promotes “Student Discovery Day,” a day where thousands of school students can learn about the Civil War.

Each month Orville contributes 88 hours of volunteer service working to launch new projects and explaining historical incidents of the war. He was a founding member of the Blackford County Civil War Reenactment Club, Inc. and served as its president for 20 years. He also serves as project leader, coordinating a three day living history event depict-ing the Civil War. Orville does everything from fundraising, setting up, and cleaning up for the event.

Through 2011, he has contributed over 11,670 hours to this worthwhile cause. He has spent 1,500 to 2,000 hours researching and writing a book about Civil War soldiers from Blackford County and nearby areas. The book was first pub-lished in 1994, and a second edition published in 2004, with proceeds to the Civil War Monument.

Orville is also active in his church and volunteers with Second Harvest Food Bank.

Once again the 3M volunteer spirit is personified, this time in Orville Uggen who unselfishly shares his time and talent with others. His $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Black-ford County Civil War Reenactment Club, Inc.

Sharon KotkeOakdale, Minn.

A Passion For Helping OthersSharon Kotke is certainly “one busy lady.” We can truly say

this generous person wears “many hats!”Seven years ago she started an Al-Anon chapter. She

schedules and facilitates the meetings, as well as ordering literature, keeping track of funds, and she always has a fresh cup of coffee available. Sharon also pays the rent for the space that is used for these group meetings, now totaling 15 people. Sharon’s Al-Anon is a safe place for people who are struggling with addictions, a place where they feel people care about them and will help them onto the right path in life. Sharon says, “It’s a wonderful blessing to see someone come into the group, broken up inside, and in a short time are actually smil-ing and working the twelve-step program. They know they are not alone and that there is hope.”

“Ready for Success” is another volunteer program Sharon has been involved with for ten years. This program serves a diverse group of women, the majority of whom are low-income, making a life transition out of incarceration, treatment programs, or who are coming from job training programs, vy-ing for a spot in the workplace. She helps prepare women for employment interviews, advises them how to dress, and how to present themselves in the workplace. Sharon’s joyful and giving spirit helps the women face their fears.

Another volunteer effort is Hospice Care. For the past three years Sharon has been at HealthEast as a hospice volunteer, specifically at the Pillars Hospice House in Oakdale. She as-sists their staff serving meals, cleaning up after events, plus many more various tasks. She also works directly with termi-nally ill patients and their families, helping to make the end of life a bit more peaceful by reading to them, praying with them or simply sitting with them so they don’t feel alone.

In short, Sharon’s “big heart” is always open and willing to help anyone and everyone who is in need. Her $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Metro Hope.

Carol Dummer Hutchinson, Minn.

Thinking Outside the Box3M retiree Carol Dummer has volunteered with Common

Cup Ministry in Hutchinson for six years, working some 24 hours a month, a total of more than 1,700 hours.

Common Cup Ministry (CCM) is the combined outreach ef-fort of McLeod County churches, businesses and individuals. Its mission is to gather and share resources in one “common cup” so that help is available to people who have no church to turn to. CCM helps people who are experiencing a spiri-tual, social or financial crisis — for instance, money urgently needed for utilities, rent, food or medical aid.

An applicant’s first contact is with a Common Cup on-call volunteer — a difficult position as it requires patience, under-standing and the ability to ask just the right questions. The fact that each case is unique requires thinking outside the box and coming up with specific suggestions that fit individual situa-tions. In some cases, a client might be advised to visit other or-ganizations that can offer more assistance than CCM. The goal is always to assist the client in the best way possible.

Carol’s willingness to listen and in-depth search for avail-able resources impacts all the clients she visits with, either in person or by phone. She offers assistance in any way possible, and then follows up with client needs. Others at CCM note her way of approaching her work includes compassion, a warm heart and “a wonderful smile.”

Carol also volunteers with the organization’s Food Outreach, School Supply Distribution and Coat Distribution programs.

“The position as an on-call volunteer takes a very special person,” notes CCM’s Board chair. “Since my involvement with Common Cup Ministry, Carol Dummer has been a champion in how she has dealt with each client or situation.” Her $1,000 3M Foundation check went to Common Cup Ministry.

Alumnae Recollect and Reconnect at 3M Always a Girl Scout Day

June Fremont, right, rehired 3M retiree (working in 3M Marketing,

Sales and Communication) and her friend, Mary Hawkins, reconnect at the 3M Always a Girl Scout event. For 12 years, June was troop leader and Mary was assistant leader for Girl Scout Troop 541 — the first troop on St. Paul’s East Side.

Attired in green and with some donning Girl Scout sashes, pins and badges, 3M retirees joined employees to celebrate 100 years of Girl Scouts on February 22. The event kicked off a year of activities. The 3M Founda-tion provided a $250,000 grant and is a major sponsor of Girl Scouts’ STEM — science, technology, engineering, and math — program and their Centennial Day of Service project.

There will be opportunities for 3M CARES volunteers to help prepare for — and participate in — the October 13 Centennial Day of Service. The project is also in partnership with the Freshwa-ter Society, and will involve hundreds of volunteers removing leaves, grass clippings, and other organic matter from streets and storm sewer entrances. Watch for details in 3M CARES e-mails.

Store to DoorOnce again, 3M CARES is ex-

panding its retiree volunteer activi-ties — this time by partnering with Store to Door, a non-profit grocery shopping and delivery service for homebound elderly adults.

Started in 1984, the organiza-tion provided 1,600 orders the first year, underscoring the need for this kind of service. Today, Store to Door has grown to serve more than 1,400 customers who live in the Twin Cities metro area. Clients pay for their groceries and also pay a small delivery fee based on a sliding income scale.

Among the many volunteers who assist this organization are the order takers — those who call clients, take their orders and then trans-mit them by computer. Volunteer shoppers then walk the Cub Foods’ aisles to fill the orders. Store to Door employees deliver the grocer-ies, unpack them, and if clients need the help, will also put the groceries away, and open jars.

Store to Door’s board of directors includes 3M retiree, Bob Smith. Bob recently spoke to a group of ex-cited 3M retirees who will be volun-teering with the nonprofit. He said, “Volunteering with this organization is the most rewarding experience of my retirement!”

3M CARES already has a sizeable group of volunteers; however, more are needed. Training is provided for both “order takers” and “shop-pers” and “coupon clippers”. To learn more details, call the CARES Office on 651-736-4247 or email 3Mcares@mmm.com. Thank you.

A Message from Robin Torgerson, vice president, 3M Community Affairs and 3M FoundationDear 3M CARES Volunteer,

For his longtime volunteering with Girl Scouts, 3M retiree Don Lee will be recognized at Girl Scouts River Valley’s Centennial April gala as an Honorable “MENtion” — a spe-

cial category created to recognize three really important male volunteers. He was also recognized for his service at the 3M Always a Girl Scout event. Left to right: Kim Price, 3M Assistant General Counsel; Jean Sweeney, Vice President, 3M Environmental, Health and Safety Operations; Don Lee; Linda Keene, CEO, Girl Scouts River Valleys; Robin Torgerson, Vice President, 3M Community Affairs.

Joan, 3M retiree, and Mark Strobel, 3M employee, recipients of Parks & Trails

Council of Minnesota’s Reuel Harmon Award for their volunteerism.

Every day you inspire, connect with service opportunities, and take action to meet community challenges. On behalf of 3M and 3M CARES, thank you for your active demonstration of the collective retiree power to foster positive transformation in our communities.

During National Volunteer Week, April 15-21, and year-round, 3M celebrates your selfless actions. And this month, two 3M Commu-nity Giving partner organizations will recognize 3Mers: Don Lee, 3M retiree who patiently teaches outdoor skills to Girl Scouts of Min-nesota and Wisconsin River Valleys’ scouts, and Joan (3M retiree) and Mark (3M employee) Strobel, who tirelessly work to preserve the North Shore’s state parks through the Parks & Trails Council of Minnesota.

Carol Winch-Longmuir researched the 3M CARES’ archives to share some impressive statistics from the past 14 years of CARES’ 28-year history.

• Over 12,000 volunteers have participated in 660 one-time CARES projects, serving 48,000 hours!

• 4,200 volunteers, with 23,000 hours, participate in 3M-sponsored activities such as Stuff for School, Red Cross blood drives, or 3M Visiting Wizards.

• Habitat for Humanity volunteers number 1,600 with 294,000 hours.

• 3M CARES office and Encore staff and other volunteers top off the list with 62,000 hours.

To thank you, we invite you to participate in two volunteer recognition programs:

• 3M Community Volunteer Award: Recognition of 3M’s most outstanding volunteers. See reverse side for nomination informa-tion.

• 3M Volunteer Match: When you serve a minimum 25 hours in a calendar year, you and your qualified nonprofit organization are eligible for a $250 3M Foundation grant to the organization. Learn more at: www.3Mgiving.com
