Wendy Wayne was a dedicated volunteer and ethical leader in the Bakersfield community and beyond. The Wendy Wayne Ethics Awards were dedicated in her honor upon her death in 2012 and sustain her legacy and commitment to service and ethics by recognizing individuals whose behavior embodies these values. Each year, nominations are accepted by the Kegley Institute in a youth category and in an adult category recognizing a lifetime commitment to ethics. The 2018 Wendy Wayne Ethics Awardees will be honored at this ceremony. The event is organized by the Kegley Institute of Ethics and co-sponsored by Kaiser Permanente and Adventist Health.
