2024 Community Action Award Winners

We had the great pleasure of awarding two high school seniors with our 2024 SI Volunteer Community Impact Award. Each senior received $500 to further their education and $250 towards the charity of their choice.

Our winners this year were Karley Keast and Lauren Andringa. Karley will be attending the HCC nursing program next year and chose Reins of Hope as her charity. Lauren will be attending K-State to become a Physician’s Assistant and chose Rice County Council on Aging and Quivira Transit as her charities.

We wish these young women the absolute best on their education journey and know we will see great things from them. Congratulations, Karley and Lauren!
