As a military spouse, Paula was recognized for her work as vice president of Santa’s Castle’s, an annual program that provides gifts to children of military families experiencing financial difficulties.

With the help of donors and volunteer “elves,” the program distributed $219,981 in toys, books, games, bikes and stocking stuffers to 2,633 children from 1,245 military families.
