Carla J. Markell
Delaware's First Lady
First Lady Carla J. Markell As First Lady, Mrs. Markell has focused on at–risk children and encouraging volunteerism in the First State. A mentor to several youth over the last decade, she personally has seen how the commitment of a caring adult can make a real difference in their lives. She believes that mentoring as well as an exposure to the arts and sports can transform the lives of young people.
Mrs. Markell has served on the board of directors for Delaware Theatre Company (DTC). She was honored in 2007 with the Stephen Daniel Faulk Volunteer Award. In January 2009, she and Governor Markell co–chaired the Weekend of Volunteer Service, held in lieu of an inaugural ball. In April 2010, Mrs. Markell organized a Week of Service for a better Delaware involving the Governor’s Commission on Community and Volunteer Service, the State office of Volunteerism, and members of the community.
