this scholarship by turning her
educational life around, and
overcoming a difficult situa-
tion.
After a year in an online
school, she returned to public
school for ninth grade,
enrolled in a speech and
debate class and fell in love
with it.
Discovering a “well-hidden
love and passion for speaking”
she excelled. With her confi-
dence boosted, she competed
in speech and debate tourna-
ments and qualified for state

Queen Rhododendra in 2016.
In conjunction with her serv-
ice in the “court,” she started
her own community service
project, called “Christmas in
April.”
This effort allowed her to
work as a homeless liaison for
the school district to help col-
lect and distribute needed sup-
plies to local children in need.
DAR looks forward to
Hanna’s bright future as she
makes a difference in the
world.
The nine-year-old Oregon
Dunes Chapter members work
hard to raise funds to sponsor
this scholarship.
Sales of their cookbook,
“DAR: Delicious Ancestral
Recipes,” will help fund next
year’s scholarship.
The cookbook is available
for purchase at Siuslaw
Pioneer Museum or Oregon
