VALUEUSA :: Susan D. Green Memorial Award


A Special Thank You - Susan D. Green Memorial Award
VALUEUSA: Newsletter 11.2018 

It’s that time of year again where we go around the table and take turns expressing what we are grateful for!

Here at VAULEUSA, we would like to give a special thanks to several amazing women who have all had their spot on the stage to receive the renown Susan D. Green Memorial Award!

Georgia Rogers
We would like to recognize and congratulate Georgia Rogers on the release of her new book, Georgia Loves Learning, that is now available for purchase on Amazon!

Georgia won the Susan D. Green Memorial Award in 2011, and now, through her book, we have the full story and history of this influential woman of adult education advocacy. In the pages of Georgia Loves Learning, you will read how Georgia’s love of education empowered her to reach educational pursuits that she has held since childhood. One of her most impactful contributions was her founding of her own adult education school that thrived for 15 years!

Robin Karov
It is with bittersweet emotion that we inform you of the passing of someone very special to us here at VAULEUSA, Robin Karov. Robin was a Susan D. Green Memorial Award winner and a dedicated advocate for adult literacy. In Vermont, she worked at the Brandon Training School, Vermont Adult Learning (VAL), and WomenSafe, where she helped to strengthen programs and people alike.

Patsy Golden
Finally, we would like to take a moment to shine the spotlight on Patsy Golden, the original winner of the Susan D. Memorial Award and an outstanding community activist. Patsy has served on the board here at VALUEUSA helping adult learners reach goals that they never thought possible.
