Jeff VanWagenen, right, manager United Water Owego Nichols, presents a check to Adam Cole, center, vice president of the Owego Junior Football League, and Tom Taft, left, president of the league.<\/p><\/div>\n

United Water announced that Jeff VanWagenen, manager of United Water Owego-Nichols, has been named a recipient of the company\u2019s Care to Share Award in recognition of his volunteer work. The $1,500 grant will be shared between the Owego Junior Football League and the Owego Little League Association, both groups with whom VanWagenen has been associated with for the past three years.<\/p>\n

An independent panel judges the Care to Share Award. An award winner is chosen based on the volunteer\u2019s impact on the organization served, the level of commitment shown, the level of innovation brought to the organization, the volunteer\u2019s level of responsibility or leadership within the organization and the amount of time invested in helping the organization meet its mission and achieve its goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur company has long emphasized that a key aspect of being a supportive member of the communities we serve is giving back to those communities through volunteering and service,\u201d said Chris Graziano, general manager of the United Water New York Division. \u201cJeff VanWagenen embodies the spirit of volunteerism in his service with the Owego Junior Football League and the Owego Little League Association, and all of us at United Water are pleased to honor him for his work with the young people of the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

VanWagenen, who has worked at United Water for 10 years, serves as an assistant coach in both leagues. In addition, he assists with field preparation, cleanup and concessions, as well as other roles. He volunteers upwards of 10 hours per week.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m deeply honored to receive United Water\u2019s Care to Share Award,\u201d said VanWagenen. \u201cWorking with the kids of this community is truly rewarding, and I really value the opportunity to make a positive difference in their lives. I\u2019m also honored to be associated with these organizations that allow kids who want the opportunity to play sports to have that ability. It helps them build friendships, work together, stay healthy and set their sights on goals that are bigger than themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

VanWagenen says that the Owego Junior Football League and the Owego Little League Association plan to use their shares of the award to purchase new uniforms and equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
