The King Award
Honoring Allen and Nan King
Every year the Co-op honors a member of our cooperative community with the King Award, named after Allen and Nan King.
The late Allen and Nan King joined the Hanover Co-op in 1941 and were active Co-op members for more than 50 years, serving as Board members and presidents and bringing lively discussion and sage points of view to decades of annual meetings.
Both were avid believers in the cooperative model and both contributed to the local and wider community in many ways.
This award recognizes the achievements of an employee or volunteer who has shown a commitment to sustaining or enhancing the well-being of our community. An ideal embodied in the Cooperative Principle “Concern for Community.”
