Volunteer Iowa is now accepting nominations for the 2024 Governor’s Volunteer Awards. Entry deadline is April 30 at 6:00pm.
The Governor’s Volunteer Awards program, established in 1982, provides an easy way for organizations to honor their volunteers with a prestigious, state-level recognition award. Three award categories are available: Individual, Group, and Length of Service.
Award recipient information can be submitted using one of the following methods:
- All organizations (including state government agencies) submit information, and the handling fee ($15 per nomination) directly through Volunteer Iowa through an online nomination form. Organizations will be able to submit the handling fee online.
- State agencies will submit nominations through the same online form. Invoicing will be handled separately. (Staff of state government agencies must submit nominations through their agency's coordinator.)
Nominations are accepted from: City governments, community colleges, county governments, federal government units operating in Iowa, Iowa MENTOR certified programs, K-12 schools (public and parochial), national service programs operating in Iowa (AmeriCorps, AmeriCorps Seniors), nonprofit and charitable organizations, private colleges and universities, non-state government organizations.
