Our parents gave what they had to us. And we try to give what we have to our children.
Mary Sellars Haith was born and raised right here in Alamance County in 1925. Ms. Haith was a lifelong nurse and public health advocate. Committed to a life of service, she volunteered tirelessly with organisations, working with meals on wheels and many others.
Inspired by the love and care she received from her own parents, Ms. Haith was committed to helping youth and their families. She engaged families about immunizations and taught new mothers how to make formula. Ms. Haith believed that, as a parent, it is her duty to give everything she has to not just her children, but all children who need her help.
Because of her passion to care for children, Ms. Haith was named an Alamance County Guardian ad Litem (a court appointed volunteer who cares for children).
