PROGRAM: MIRNA WILDASIN - MICHAEL BUTERA - Hanover Area Council of Churches
Mirna introduced Michael Butera who spoke about his association with the Council of Churches. Michael gave a personal, moving account of his early life and support he received from HACC. As a youngster he experienced a difficult life including being in placement, his family being evicted from their home, being hit by a car and resultant injuries, and living in shelter at HACC. He feels that had it not been for HACC he would not be here with us today. At age 15 Mike found music as his passion in life. He has since had success in the music field and feels good about helping other artists in the area and HACC. He has hosted several events to showcase their talent. He donates $$ to HACC and needy families in the area. He credits HACC with turning his life around.
Mike founded RIOYC - Rub It On Your Chest - as a slogan for people to stand up for themselves.
We appreciated Mike's honesty and sincerity in telling his life's story and wish him continued success in his career.
