Katherine Commale, a 7-year-old from Downingtown, Chester County, has been named "United Methodist of the Year" for 2008, according to the United Methodist Reporter.
She raised a whopping $85,000 for Nothing but Nets, a project to combat poverty-related diseases. The second-grader turns 8 on Jan. 4.
Every $10 donation to Nothing but Nets purchases one bed net to help fight malaria, so Katherine's responsible for a ton of nets. Go girl!
