 The
award recognizes notable Heartland alumni who demonstrate
exceptional achievement in their profession and make a positive
impact on their community.
“The purpose of the award is to recognize an alumnus who is making a
difference in the community,” said Foundation Executive Director
Chris Downing. “We encourage co-workers, family members, friends and
professors to consider taking a few minutes to nominate a former
Heartland student who deserves to be honored.”
Last year’s award winner was Melissa Marx, Senior Director of
Operations for Outpatient Imaging Affiliates. A 2006 graduate of
Heartland, Marx has been active in the fight against breast cancer
and a passionate advocate for screening exams for women. She has

County Chamber of Commerce, Heartland Community College Foundation,
and Heartland Community College Radiography.
