Falmouth resident Jennifer Gregg receives "Tireless Neighbor" award from Haley's Tire
In recognition of her volunteering her time to numerous area non-profits, Haley's Tire & Service Center recently awarded Falmouth resident Jennifer Gregg its "Tireless Neighbor" honors for the month of August.
- (1888PressRelease) September 17, 2011 - FALMOUTH, MAINE - You might say donating her time is a habit-or habitat-for Gregg. Since relocating to Falmouth after her retirement from the CIA in 2000, she's been an active volunteer for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Portland, doing everything from pounding nails to raising funds for Habitat homes in Falmouth, Naples, Portland and Cumberland. Gregg has also been an active organizer of and participant in St. Mary's Episcopal Church of Falmouth's outreach projects that have included generating hands-on and financial support in recent years for organizations such as Safe Passage, Gary's house, the Falmouth Food Pantry and St. Elizabeth's Essential Needs Pantry.
More recently, she turned her focus to the management of S. Mary's "Souper Supper", a sit-down supper of soup, bread, salad and desserts offered free of charge twice monthly to the greater Portland community. For those efforts, Gregg received "Tireless Neighbor" honors.
"It's a little dizzying listening to Jennifer's list of charitable endeavors, not to mention her service to our country" said Tim Haley, owner of Haley's Tire. "We are extremely lucky to have somebody like Jennifer who not only chose to live in this community but make it a better place with her work with Habitat and St. Mary's in Falmouth. She's an extremely worthy recipient of our Tireless Neighbor award."
Each month, Haley's Tire & Service Center recognizes somebody in the four communities they serve-Augusta, Bangor, Biddeford and Falmouth-for going above and beyond the call of duty for the communities in which they live. Candidates are nominated by fellow citizens, who submit a short description as to why a particular nominee should be that month's Tireless Neighbor. The entry that makes the most compelling case, as determined by Haley's Tire staff, receives the Tireless Neighbor honor, which includes a free oil change (a $29.95 value) at any Haley's Tire location.
Gregg was nominated for the Tireless Neighbor award by her friend, Talie Harris, a fellow volunteer at St. Mary's.
"I spent almost 30 years with the CIA working mostly overseas. When it was time to retire, I decided I was going to pick a place where I could experience an American community," said Gregg. "By living in Falmouth and working with Habitat and St. Mary's, I've been able to fulfill the dream of being part of a community and that's a reward unto itself. Being recognized for that is just icing on the cake."
