STEPHANIE HAWKINS NAMED DECEMBER VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH
Sandpoint, ID – The Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce is proud to recognize Stephanie Hawkins as its December Volunteer of the Month, honoring her outstanding commitment to service, leadership, and community impact throughout Bonner County.
Over the past five years, Hawkins has demonstrated exceptional dedication to strengthening the local community through volunteer leadership, advocacy, and nonprofit service. From October 2020 through January 2025, she volunteered with North Idaho CASA in Bonner County, supporting children and families involved in the court system and helping ensure that vulnerable youth had a consistent, informed voice during critical moments in their lives.
Hawkins is also an active member of Cedar Hills Church, where she has served as a vocalist during worship services since March 2021, contributing her time and talents to support community connection and spiritual engagement.
In addition to her service roles, Hawkins currently serves as a board member and vice chair for two local organizations: Forrest Bird Charter School and the Kinderhaven Foundation. In these leadership positions, she helps guide organizational strategy, governance, and mission-driven initiatives focused on education, family support, and long-term community wellbeing.
Beyond governance and advocacy, Hawkins is also deeply involved in hands-on fundraising efforts. She volunteers with Beta Sigma Phi Alpha, helping make and sell elephant ears at the local fair, with proceeds directly benefiting college scholarships for local high school students.
