Who's Who 2011: Robyn Gautschy

Gautschy is a member of the Zonta Club of Cape Girardeau and volunteers at the Humane Society of Southeast Missouri; with Big Brothers Big Sisters; United Way's Read to Succeed program; and at the Missouri Veterans Home. She has participated in Relay for Life and attends church and Bible study.

"Through my job, and my other community involvement, I'm always hearing about needs in the Cape Girardeau area. I can't stand to see a person hurting or struggling - I want to help everyone! If I had 10 extra hours a week to volunteer, I would spend it with Habitat for Humanity. I did Habitat in college, and would still like to get involved here in Cape Girardeau. I'd also love to spend more time where I already volunteer. There's always more I can do."
