Western Kentucky volunteers honored with President’s Service Award
OWENSBORO, Ky. (WFIE) – The U.S. President’s Service Award was given to volunteers from Junior Achievement of West Kentucky on Wednesday.
They acquired these awards for volunteering in faculties for a minimum of 2,000 hours within the 2021–2022 tutorial yr. Former President George W. Bush created the award throughout his presidency in 2003.
Steve Dixon has been a recipient for six of the final seven years. Dixon says he was shocked to study that he was going to be awarded once more for the seventh time.
“I didn’t notice that I put that many hours in,” Dixon mentioned. “However you bought preparation to serve for these courses and in addition to time within the classroom.”
In complete, 4 companies and two different folks have been this yr’s recipients.
