Volunteer of the Year Award
In 2007, King College began awarding the Volunteer of the Year Award to alumni who have committed a significant portion of their time and talents to furthering the mission of the College. From stuffing and taking mailings to the post office, to being a point of contact for other volunteers, an institution the size of King would not be able to function without the faithful efforts of its volunteers.
