Brinkman said she partic-
ularly likes Shelton Kiwanis
because so much of their
donations go to helping chil-
dren. She also substitutes as
an educational assistant at
local elementary schools.
"I especially like kin-
dergarten, first and second
grade I feel like I can
make a difference with those
children," she said.
Brinkman spent her ca-
reer at the Washington
Department of Social and
Health Services (DSHS)
headquarters in Lacey work-
ing on her lifelong desire to
help people.
'ou're saving lives, pro-
viding support and protec-
tion," she said. "Almost all
state employees really work
hard and believe in what
they're doing."

University Women.
She is a 1977 Evergreen
State College graduate.
"A lot of the organizations
I belong to also provide schol-
arships," she said.
Brinkman said she feels
passionately about helping
people, particularly children,
but also makes time for an-
other passion -- art.
"I love the arts, any kind
of live performance ... I love
to act. I love to be a part of
it," she said.
Brinkman serves on the
Shelton Arts Commission, a
board with several members
appointed by the Shelton
City Commission.
The arts commission picks
local art for the Shelton civic
center's rotating art gallery.
"The purpose of the arts
commission is to get people
involved," she said.
The arts commission also
runs an annual fundraiser
called Empty Bowls. The
three-part fundraiser invites
members of the community
to come 1;o the civic center
and mold clay bowls one
night and decorate them the
next. Also, for a small price,
participants can use their
own bowls to eat at a soup
dinner on the third night.
"Some of them are abso-
lutely amazing for the first
thing they've worked on,"
Brinkman said.
Last year the fundraiser
earned $1,200 for the Saint's
Pantry Food Bank, she said.
Brinkman said young peo-
ple, especially those in high
school and college, should
get involved in service clubs
to promote their self-esteem
and earn skills for the future.
"Any time you can get them
involved it's good for them,"
she said.
