Congratulations to Maureen Cavaiola our Excellence in Volunteerism Award winner for 2008!  An outstanding community volunteer, Maureen co-founded Partners in Care, a non-profit organization in Anne Arundel County, 15 years ago and has been dedicated to it’s expansion ever since.  Partners in Care assists older and disabled adults by using a unique, service-exchange concept which engages its 2,400 member network to help each other given her belief that everyone has something to contribute.  Maureen is truly a “Woman Who Makes a Difference” and we celebrate her!
