Kevin Hogate volunteer Award

Annual OHG Award

The Annual Kevin Hogate Volunteer Award honors an individual in our community who exemplifies the true meaning of volunteerism. Volunteering is an act of kindness by an individual freely giving of their time, talents, and labor to community service. Kevin’s life was cut much too short his freshman year of college, and Orange Home Grown (OHG) is proud to partner with the Hogate Family to share Kevin’s passion for community and willingness to get involved and give back locally. Kevin is greatly missed by his family and friends, but his memory lives on through others.
