Nominations for the Governor’s Outstanding Volunteer Awards are now being accepted by the State Office of Volunteerism.
These awards recognize the important contributions volunteers make to their communities through volunteerism. Award recipients will be honored at a special ceremony in October at the Dover Downs Hotel.
Individuals, businesses, and groups volunteering in the areas of arts and culture; education; community service; environment; health; human needs; and social justice during the previous calendar year are eligible. Nomination packets must be delivered to the Office of Volunteerism by August 18, 2014
Why nominate?
- These awards are a wonderful way to show your volunteers you appreciate them and highlight all the good people are doing in Delaware.
- Winners receive a framed certificate and picture of them accepting their award from the Governor.
- Winners and their organizations are highlighted in all press releases and social media.
