Team Ordway: Standing Strong Against Cancer

When we think of the foundation stones that have shaped our beloved Deer Valley Unified School District, one name consistently emerges – Ann Elizabeth Ordway. Over the past 14 years, Ann has diligently served on the District's governing Board, forging ahead with her indefatigable spirit to create an environment where every child thrives.

Ann is not just a dedicated board member. She is a mother whose heart has always been invested in the well-being and success of our children. For decades, she has been an unyielding advocate for children's issues and education, ensuring that no child is left behind and that every young dreamer gets their fair shot at success.

Beyond the halls of our schools, Ann has been a beacon of hope and an emblem of compassion in our community. Whether raising funds for students or supporting causes that feed and clothe them, Ann's mission has always been crystal clear: to better the lives of those around her. Her genuine care for the community's well-being and her selflessness in donating her time and talents have made a lasting impression on us all.

Now, during this chapter of Ann's life, as she embarks on her journey toward recovery from cancer, it is our time to stand with her, just as she has stood with us for so many years. We are coming together to raise funds to help cover Ann's medical and living expenses. Let us ensure that during this challenging period, she remains surrounded by the same love, support, and positivity that she has consistently radiated throughout her life.

To the friends, family, parents, and teachers who have witnessed Ann's passion and dedication first-hand – we humbly request your support. Our goal isn't just about money but about expressing our deep gratitude and letting Ann know that her Deer Valley family is here for her, cheering her on every step of the way.

Let us rally together and show our unwavering support for a woman who has given so much of herself to uplift the lives of countless others. Together, let’s journey with Ann Elizabeth Ordway toward a brighter, healthier future.
