She shows her brilliance by heading up the teams that answer all such questions. These teams include the Support Team and the Spam Control Team. Any issue is followed up on and resolved as soon as possible. Technical issues are tracked and members informed once resolved.

−	Are there words enough to describe the global volunteer "VP" of The Freecycle Network? Dona is our Hub Coordinator globally which means she organizes the global leadership team of The Freecycle Network [i.e. all these other coordinators are on ''her'' team]. Deron couldn't do it without her. She brings with her the institutional memory and skills from having most recently been the Outreach Coordinator along with many other hats she has worn such as local group moderator which she continues to be as well. Dona doesn't just care for our Freecycle garden, but also puts a tremendous amount of time into her own garden, some "unschooling" and just being a Mom as well. Let it be noted that she also has other critters in her barn that she also manages to keep under her impressive wing, in addition to her hubbie (who is hopefully not in the barn)!
