Jill
Spaulding - 2006 Water Carrier
 |
The Water Carrier Award is an opportunity to show our
respect for the hard work of those who in countless ways
help improve, fulfill, and safeguard our mission to
enhance the lives of those with disabilities.
For twenty years,
Jill has made an investment of her life that has
contributed to the continuity of our Agency
All of us say
THANK YOU |
The
Water Carrier Award reads as follows…
In the
life of an American Indian tribe, the water carrier held one of
the most important and respected positions.
Water, like food and air, is essential for
survival.
To be a
water carrier suggested continuity, longevity, commitment,
dependability, and resourcefulness.
At
Abilities Services, a water carrier transfers the essence of our
tribe to new people who arrive to help us and eventually, to
replace us. They possess qualities like compassion, humor, a
sense of history, the ability to teach, and an unshakable
commitment to the tribe.
You cannot
be hired into a tribe. Joining -- results from, and results in,
an intimate link of talents and skills that each of us brings to
the job and the Agency on behalf of our consumers and customers.
These
water carriers for twenty year or more, have made an investment
of their lives that has contributed to the continuity of our
Agency
