Welcome to the 2022 Volunteer Award Nomination Portal

Your participation is needed to make Marion County's volunteer recognition a success. Thank you for submitting a nomination for our 2022 Volunteer Awards.
 
Your nomination should recognize a volunteer for their service during the 2022 calendar year (January 1, 2022 - December 31, 2022).
 
Remember to spell out acronyms and to give specific examples of the nominee’s work and the importance to clients, the county, and/or community. A nominee may be honored for ongoing or past service to a program, or for work on a one-time project. Anyone may submit a nomination, and volunteers may be nominated for more than one category. A separate nomination form must be received for each category.
 
Nominations are accepted throughout the year, but must be submitted to Volunteer Services no later than 5pm on Friday, February 24, 2023 to be considered for a 2022 award. A selection committee will review the nominations and select recipients; the Board of Commissioners will present awards at a yet-to-be determined event in 2023.
