Awards: Volunteer of the Year

Established by the VAGP Board of Directors in 2006, the Volunteer of the Year Award was created to recognize a member or members displaying substantial volunteerism to the organization. This award recognizes those who go "above and beyond" the call of duty.

Such volunteerism may include service to VAGP which results in a substantial amount of personal time donated to VAGP activities or service to the membership, contributions to VAGP as demonstrated by service as a committee member or chair, volunteer instructor, conference host or other special contribution to the association through internal and external activities, and activities that result in promoting the good name of VAGP, activities which promote a positive reflection on VAGP, or a positive reflection on the purchasing profession.

Eligibility

The recipient of this award must be a member in good standing and must have served VAGP in a volunteer capacity during the previous calendar year. All members are eligible to receive this award except the voting members of the Board of Directors during their term of office.

Nominations

Nominations may be made by individuals, other members of elected officers. A letter of application may be e-mailed to the VAGP President outlining the nominee's volunteerism.
Deadline is September 17, 2010.
