Fulton, NY ? Allain Daigle, a member of the SUNY Oswego faculty and owner of Tiny Owl Media, received the United Way of Greater Oswego County?s Volunteer of Year Award at the agency?s Annual Meeting and Salute to Volunteers held March 12 at the American Foundry in Oswego.

A strong proponent of Oswego County, Daigle was recognized donating his time and talent to produce videos for United Way?s Annual Campaign Kick-Off and Annual Meeting. ?Allain has played an important role in helping tell the story of United Way and how the programs we fund positively effect those they serve. His generosity and willingness to share his considerable talents truly captures the essence of our theme; It is our Community and It is Personal!? said United Way Executive Director, Melanie Trexler.

?It has been a real pleasure for me to produce these videos and tell these stories of Oswego County. They are stories that I enjoy listening to and I appreciate the opportunity to help share these stories to help us grow and understand that we all are part of the same community,? added Daigle.
