We appreciate Anne's commitment and using her talents to support her community and the VBH Foundation.
Today we had the privilege of honoring a truly remarkable resident, Anne DaCosta, whose impact on our community has been nothing short of extraordinary. đź’™
In the early years at The Glebe, Anne founded the Crafters Group—bringing residents together to create, learn, and support one another. What began as a small gathering has grown into a vibrant and meaningful part of our community life.
In 2009, Anne launched the Annual Fall Craft & Bake Sale to benefit The Glebe Benevolent Fund. What started as a simple idea has continued every single year—even through the pandemic—and now includes a Silent Auction. Thanks to Anne and the many talented crafters, this event has raised an incredible $49,845 to support residents in need.
Anne’s dedication, creativity (and yes—her famous fig jam!) have touched so many lives. Today, we celebrated her leadership, her vision, and the joy she has brought to others.
We also enjoyed looking back at the beautiful quilts and scrapbooks that tell the story of this special group and all they’ve accomplished together.
Please join us in thanking Anne and all of our crafters for making The Glebe such a caring, connected community. 👏
