About Daniel Hux

At college and throughout other segments of the community, Daniel Hux found opportunities of service and growth.  As a volunteer  in public service, Daniel was a Navarro College Ambassador, president  of the Leo Club, treasurer of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, a member of the student senate and served as a RA (residential advisor) in his dorm. He performed over 700 volunteer hours at the Cook Center, working  with his mentor, Carole Davenport, the director of the center. Carole  remembered Daniel walking into her office, volunteering to help at the  many community events held at the Cook Center. “I actually thought an  angel had just walked in! He explained that he was working on his Congressional Award and needed volunteer hours, and he had chosen the Cook Center. From that day on, Daniel was at everything and did anything  I needed. He was a dream of a volunteer and worker. I told him one day,  ‘If I had a son, I would want him to be you.’” Daniel has continued to  volunteer at the center even though the award requirements have been  completed. Lifetime service to the community is a primary goal of the  Congressional Award program. The program focuses on the young person  intensively working at only one or two volunteer jobs during the six-year period it can take to earn the award. Daniel graduated with a few majors, economics, distribution management and technology at  Baylor University, Daniel finds his personal development gained through the award advantageous as well as the time spent at Baylor University.
