HELENA, MONTANA: The Montana Student Volunteer Award is presented through the partnership between the Governor’s Office of Community Service and Montana Campus Compact campuses. Honorees of this annual award are college students across the state who demonstrate dedication to service in their communities while pursuing a college degree or certificate.
Representing Miles Community College on the list of recipients is Wacy Arndt. Arndt is an engaged member of the MCC community and logged over 350 hours of service in 2019-2020 prior to the onset of COVID-19. In particular, he promotes youth engagement in the Miles City Youth Hockey Association.
“These young Montanans embody the spirit of service that is at the core of our values as a state,” Montana Governor Steve Bullock said. “This year, more than ever, we need folks like these students who get out there and work to effect positive change in their communities. This is only the start of what is likely a lifelong commitment to service, and I cannot wait to see what each accomplishes in the upcoming years.”
This year, 12 student volunteers across Montana will be recognized by their school. Additionally, each winner will receive a certificate signed by Governor Bullock and their college president.
