Community Service
Although RaDene made the personal decision to stay at home with her children, it did not take away her drive to serve her community. Since moving to Provo with her family in 1996, Hatfield has worked with many organizations making her community a better place to live. In the past, Hatfield has worked as a member and as the President of the Timpview High School Band Parent Council, which under her direction raised $250,000 to replace 16-year-old marching band uniforms. Most recently, Hatfield serves as the Provo Council PTA President, on the board of the directors for the Provo Education Foundation and Influence International Inc., as a member of Corporate Alliance of Utah, and on the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival Committee.

Famous quotes containing the words community and/or service:
“The people needed to be rehoused, but I feel disgusted and depressed when I see how they have done it. It did not suit the planners to think how they might deal with the community, or the individuals that made up the community. All they could think was, “Sweep it away!” The bureaucrats put their heads together, and if anyone had told them, “A community is people,” they would not have known what they were on about.”
—May Hobbs (b. 1938)
“The ability to think straight, some knowledge of the past, some vision of the future, some skill to do useful service, some urge to fit that service into the well-being of the community,—these are the most vital things education must try to produce.”
—Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
