Nora Flood, director of Sonoma Charter School, has been selected as the recipient of the 2007 CommonBond Foundation award, which is presented annually to an individual in the community who exemplifies the CommonBond mission of fostering cross-cultural respect and mutual appreciation among neighboring cultures in the Sonoma Valley. According to Anna Pier, director of educational programs for CommonBond, “Nora Flood has been indefatigable in her efforts to serve children from the Latino community, not only at Sonoma Charter School, but also in the larger community.” Dedicated to the school’s neighborhood and the Springs, Flood is involved with numerous community endeavors and organizations.
When informed of the award Flood said, “I am humbled and honored to be recognized by CommonBond, and it has truly been such a pleasure to get to know so many people in our community. I think under all of this Irish exterior beats a Latina heart. I love the Springs and feel such a part of it. This is definitely ‘my village’!”
The award will be presented at the the Sunnys Community Awards gala to be held on Friday, May 2 at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn. For more information on the Sunnys please call 707.933.0101, ext. 110.
