The third annual Crusader Community Advocate Award was given to two deserving Crusader employees: Evelyn Meeks and Heather Wimsatt.

Heather Wimsatt is a Medical Unit Manager at the Crusader Community Health on Broadway-Uram building. In her position she is devoted to the Crusader cause and has the desire to help whoever or whenever it is needed.
