We would like to thank the AnnieRuth Foundation and all of its volunteers for hosting the 4th Annual Christmas Party at University Plaza Apartments! All of our residents had a wonderful time. The children and families were very happy and proud to be a part of the Christmas party. We are looking forward to having many other events hosted on our property in the near future.

Thank you very much for coming and presenting (the Resume Writing and Behavioral Interviewing Techniques workshop) to my students. You were able to answer (the tough) questions that I wasn’t 100 percent certain of.

I felt privileged to volunteer my services with the AnnieRuth Foundation; it was an awesome experience to be able to help assist in preparing the back packs filled with supplies and giving bagged fruit and vegetables to the students at Ocean way Elementary school, the kids were taught how to make healthy choice in selecting the foods they eat. This organization is doing an outstanding job educating our communities on various topics!

I want to take a moment to thank (the AnnieRuth Foundation) for presenting two workshops at the Mayor’s Young Leaders Advisory Council’s College, Career and Trades Fair. I just finished going over the surveys, and the students gave both of your presentations – “Understanding What Employers Want” and “Resume Development” – ratings of “excellent.” If the Advisory Council decides to host this event again next year, and I believe they will, you will be on the top of their invite list. Again, thank you for spending your Saturday helping Jacksonville’s young people gain valuable knowledge that will help them start and grow in their careers.

Being an AnnieRuth Foundation summer internship award recipient has been a blessing and an honor. I am so very grateful to have been offered this opportunity because this internship is the first step to my career goal as a Fashion Buyer. Through this program, I learned a lot about the Fashion Merchandising industry and I feel very strongly that this is the field for me. I am also thankful for the AnnieRuth Foundation for giving to the community by investing in the future of students.

My daughter and I volunteered with the AnnieRuth Foundation; we gave out healthy snacks and back-to-school backpacks. It was very rewarding giving to the children. The Annieruth Foundation is amazing. We are looking forward to helping out again very soon.

I am blessed to be a part of this organization and volunteer with many individuals who take the time to help those in need. It just warms my heart to see smiles and expressions of gratitude of children, parents and elderly that we serve in local communities!

When I came to the workshop this morning, I didn’t know the topic. All I knew is that the AnnieRuth Foundation was hosting it so I knew I had to be here.

Being an award recipient of the AnnieRuth Foundation’s Summer Internship Program has given me the upper hand when it comes to completing college assignments. I’ve been able to share the knowledge, skills and wisdom that I received during the internship with my colleagues at BCU and I’m already viewed as one who will excel in the competitive industry of Communications. The experience will also help me when I become an international motivational speaker. I am so very appreciative of the AnnieRuth Foundation for affording me this opportunity!

I commend the AnnieRuth Foundation for their work with schools, companies, community organizations and families to transform the conditions and systems that lead to healthier kids. The Foundation’s focus empowers and influences communities through exposure to resources and best practices that transform choices, promote healthy environments and encourage healthy nutritional lifestyles.
