The Volunteer of the Year Award is given to a Chamber member that has demonstrated exceptional service to our Chamber and has given their time and talents to the betterment of Summerville and Dorchester County.   

Congratulations to the 2019 Volunteer of the Year, Don Nye. Don is an excellent example of a servant leader. He served as Chamber Board Chair in 2002, a board member for the Charleston Regional Education Foundation and Regional Development Alliance and served as Chair of the Workforce Development Committee. Additionally, he served as President of the Summerville Rotary Club, Assistant District Governor Rotary District 7770, and helped charter the Summerville Evening Rotary Club. 

Don serves on the Charleston Southern Board of Visitors and is past Board Chairman for Pinewood Preparatory School. He is a member of Summerville Presbyterian Church where he serves on the Pastoral Care Committee. He served as Church Elder and Treasurer of Dorchester Presbyterian Church.   

Even though he has served in the most senior leadership role with the Chamber and many other organizations within our community, Don never turns down a task; from helping at a drink station to being a Flowertown Friday Night bouncer.
