This award is presented to an individual or team of volunteers (formal or informal) with a proven record of volunteerism who, through the donations of time and talent, has played a key role in helping local nonprofit organizations provide services to the community. These volunteers often make the difference in an organization being able to expand its services to a wider audience or move its programs to a higher level of service to the community.
