Congratulations to Ella Schoenborn ’26, honored Wednesday evening with the “Why I Care” Award from Broadview Federal Credit Union.
Broadview’s most prestigious honor, the award is presented quarterly to one employee and one member for their community service activities, non-profit involvement, and how they are inspiring others to join in.
With the award came a $1000 donation to a non-profit of her choice, for which Schoenborn selected “The Carlo Cherubino Memorial Fund.”
Schoenborn founded “ProjectElla” in 2018 to feed the hungry when she was just nine-years-old.
ProjectElla has since distributed thousands of meals and hundreds of thousands of food pantry items to organizations in need throughout the Capital Region.
