Most recently she led the “Light It Up! Murray Baker Bridge Project” as part of Illinois Sen. Chuck Weaver’s 1,000# Project, raising funds and educating the community about how new LED lighting for the bridge could bring the community together, and how local organizations could “light it up” with their colors to promote awareness for specific causes and events.
A corporate champion and past board member for the Young Professionals of Greater Peoria, Schreck often donates her services as a photographer for various special events. She helped secure the All America City Award for Peoria in 2013, and has volunteered for Special Olympics Illinois, the Steamboat Classic and Peoria Regional Learning Center.
