Silver Knight Winner
Posted on May 17th, 2010Congratulations to Nicole Paez our Silver Knight recipient in Mathematics.
At the age of seven Nicole could not speak, and doctors predicted she would not advance past the fifth grade. She proved them wrong, A member of our Champagnat Program, Nicole was mainstreamed in mathematics, and she did this while volunteering hundreds of hours helping others. She founded the nonprofit organization, Angels Touch, and launched a number of projects including: raising $8,000 to help a Uruguayan boy get a kidney transplant, collecting supplies for hurricane victims in Haiti, food for twenty-seven families at Thanksgiving, and rounding up toys for the Ronald McDonald House. Her projects are endless, her courage and determination is unwavering.
