SERVPRO of Lexington/Thomasville's Marketing Manager, Betty Vanhoy won True North Award winner, which spotlights an individual North Davidson Chamber of Commerce member whose leadership and volunteerism positively impacts the community. The winner is selected by a committee comprised of past winners.

Vanhoy, who is a lifelong resident of Davidson county, is actively involved in the community. She is an ambassador for the Lexington Area Chamber of Commerce and she is vice president of the Northern Davidson Chamber and helps with its website and newsletter.

She is a member of the Downtown Lexington Lion’s Club and part of North Davidson’s marching band booster club.

“Honestly I was shocked, speechless and a bit embarrassed. I love helping, I don’t care about the accolades that go along with it. I like to be under the radar. I want to make a difference, but not be on center stage. But it’s nice to know that I was recognized for the work that I do."

Vanhoy said she likes to stay busy and give back to her community, and that her boss at SERVPRO, Craig Harmon, encourages employees to be community activists.

Said that it’s important that people make an impact in the world around them, and that it doesn’t matter whether the help is big or small.

“Besides the obvious, helping those who need help or helping the community, it gives me a sense of joy and happiness knowing that I’ve made a difference,” Vanhoy said. “In this world, there is so much negativity and so much hate and things, to be able to positively impact even one person, I can’t see why someone wouldn’t want to give back in someway big or small.”
