I would like to recognize Carlin Follis as the first honoree in our Citizen Spotlight feature. For decades, Carlin has made significant contributions to her community in Galva as a volunteer, leader, and dedicated professional. As her nominator stated, Carlin has volunteered her time to any cause that needs help, and her efforts have touched nearly every aspect of community life in Galva and beyond.
Carlin is a founding member of Crossroads Cultural Connections and the Levitt AMP Galva Music Series. She also worked as a pharmacy technician at Galva Pharmacy and plays a key role with the Galva Historical Society. In addition, Carlin serves as the Director of the Galva Senior Citizens Center and has been an essential organizer of the Galva Freedom Fest.
Carlin’s nominator concluded by stating, “Simply put, Carlin Follis is one of those rare individuals whose goodness radiates through every part of her life. Her decades of volunteerism, kindness, and leadership have made an immeasurable difference in Galva and to all who know her. She embodies the very best of what community means, and she is richly deserving of this and every honor for those who serve their communities.”
Thank you, Carlin, for your incredible compassion and dedicated service to the Galva community! I am honored to recognize and spotlight your efforts.
