34th Annual Spirit of Giving Awards

Thursday, April 29, 2010

Each Spring, we celebrate National Volunteer Week at our annual Volunteer Recognition Luncheon, providing a public and highly visible venue for nonprofits in the Mid-South to recognize their most outstanding volunteers in a variety of categories.

This event is a salute to area volunteers who answer the call to service and exemplify the true Spirit of Giving.  This is a wonderful way to promote your agency and your outstanding volunteers.

We invite nonprofit partners and community members to nominate outstanding volunteers in the following categories.  For more information, eligibility requirements, and tips on writing a winning nomination, please click here.

 Nominations are due to Volunteer Mid-South by 4 p.m., March 31, 2010.
