Two Ways to Honor People or Organizations

Outstanding Philanthropic Impact Awards: Awards are presented to individuals, corporations, foundations, service organizations, youth, and young adults who demonstrate an exceptional commitment, not only to your individual agency, but to the community as a whole. Local nonprofits submit nominations, which are reviewed and voted upon by a selection committee of community and nonprofit leaders. Download Guidelines

Distinguished Agency Honorees: Every agency has someone special… someone who consistently goes above and beyond, making contributions of time, financial support, or special and unique talents. Please take this opportunity to acknowledge the contributions by that special person to your agency. Download Guidelines
