The Anne Banning award was presented to Christy Dahms by President Elect, Sarah Spinks. The Anne Banning Leadership award is named after the founder of Assistance League, who promoted the growth of effective volunteerism through leadership and education.

Christy demonstrates personal commitment to the mission and values of the chapter as well as representing the mission and values in the community. She is an ambassador for Assistance League, ranging from the formal, as a public speaker for our chapter, to the informal, during her interactions as she constantly promotes our philanthropies and what Assistance League stands for.

Since 2009, Christy has touched many lives and led our Assistance League chapter with her passion for Assistance League’s mission and values, her fellow members, and her uncanny ability to think outside of the box. We are thankful to have Christy as part of our Assistance League of Bellingham ‘family.’
