There’s a terrific, all-volunteer local charity called Children’s Welfare League that promotes the education and welfare of disadvantaged students in the high schools of Asheville and Buncombe County.
As a volunteer with CWL, I have worked on several projects with Terry Van Duyn, and she is one of the most diligent, dedicated, passionate, selfless individuals I have ever known.
Terry takes on the task, gives it her all, accomplishes the goals and resists commendation. She is thorough, dependable, trustworthy and confident, and if Terry says it is so, then it is so.
It was no surprise to those who know her well when she was appointed to the late Sen. Martin Nesbitt’s office. Let Terry continue to represent us in the North Carolina Senate by voting Van Duyn in November!
