Davenport Volunteer Connection
S.O.F.A. Awards
Dean Ring:
Volunteer of the Year
The Davenport Volunteer Connection recently named the recipients of this year's S.O.F.A. awards. S.O.F.A. stands for "Serving Others with Fortitude and Affection Awards" and in Dean's case, this is ever so true. Dean is a founding member of Habitat for Humanity Quad Cities and has volunteered on every house we have built in our 20 years. Our hat goes off to Dean for his dedication and commitment to helping others.
