Sister Mary Ann Scherer Receives Award from Arc Fond du Lac

January 27, 2023
By CSA Sisters of St. Agnes

The mission of The Arc Fond du Lac is to empower people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) to become independent and integrated into the community through advocacy, education, training and support. The organization serves over 800 individuals, ranging in age from 5 to 80+, a year in Fond du Lac, Dodge and Winnebago Counties.

Attendees at the organization’s 21st annual Awards and Recognition Banquet not only enjoyed delicious food and amazing company, they also were inspired by the keynote speaker whose message was that people with I/DD must absolutely be involved in every aspect of research and program development so that efforts of inclusion and advocacy truly meet their needs.

Among the awards given was a Volunteer of the Year Award which recognizes a person who has made an outstanding contribution of time, creativity, or support through their involvement in the activities of any Arc program. This award was presented to Sister Mary Ann Scherer, recognizing her work and dedication at The Arc Fond du Lac.  The comments that were included in the presentation gave testimony to the impact of the activities organized by Mary Ann on both clients and staff. They also appreciate her kindness and the smile that she brings into every room.

Congratulations, Sister Mary Ann, for this recognition of your volunteer ministry!
