Volunteer Spotlight Featuring Carrie Clark

Throughout her Busey career of 29 years, Carrie has consistently been passionate about giving back specifically as a long-time supporter and volunteer at the Streator Festival. The festival consists of music performances, vendor shows, carnival, fireworks, and over a dozen daily food vendors. While on her ‘vacation time’, Carrie dedicated her week to preparing for the festival in its entirety, from set up to take down. The service that Carrie and her husband dedicate make a direct impact to community, as the funds raised at the Streator Festival go back into the city for improvements.

In addition to volunteering during this annual festival, Carrie has also volunteered in the Mazon community where her and her husband reside. “Carrie’s compassion for helping others is very rare. When she finds a cause, she is always there to help.” – Deborah Durando, VP – Service Center Manager III
