Beacon's 2024 Consumer of the Year award went to Michelle Ellinger, in recognition of her contributions to our community. She was chosen for many reasons, including her fine work as our "Lunch Box" program, where she oversees the store and trains the volunteer staff. Her nomination said: "She teaches job skills and is very patient, kind and encouraging to those who volunteer out there. She has cleaned, decorated and organized the store. She also has come up with numerous creative ideas regarding running the store and recruiting volunteers. . . . Michelle she has accomplished a great deal in the time I’ve known her. She is an inspiration to those around her and to those she teaches. "
