VANCOUVER — Walk & Knock has presented longtime volunteer Kay Hust with its fourth annual Bud Pasmore Volunteer Achievement Award.
The honor, named for the food drive’s founder and first president, is presented annually to a Walk & Knock volunteer who has given their time, energy and heart to the annual Clark County event.
“Hust has been a loyal, go-to person for Walk & Knock over the years,” said Past President Tom Knappenberger. “Whatever needs doing, Hust raises her hand and gets the job done.”
When asked about her history with Walk & Knock, Hust replied: “I started showing up at Fire District 6 and boxing up food around 2010. I continued doing that until someone said they needed help emptying barrels — so I helped out in the Salmon Creek area emptying barrels. Then someone said ‘Hey, could you attend our next Walk & Knock meeting? We need a secretary.’ So, I did that, and the rest is history.”
