Deadline is Feb. 10
Stringing thousands of holiday lights downtown each year…
Keeping Medfield’s planters overflowing with flowers…
Saving a beloved historical house from demolition…
Organizing Medfield High School volunteers to support a variety of causes…
These are just a few of the hundreds of tasks that Medfield volunteers take on in a given year to give back to the community. Each day, quietly and without fanfare, our residents do remarkable things to help support Medfield causes. That’s why we need you to shed some light on Medfield’s many unsung heroes by nominating them for a Medfield Foundation, Inc. (MFI) volunteer award.
This year, you can nominate Medfield residents for any of these three honors:
- Volunteer of the Year,
- Youth Volunteer of the Year, and
- Lifetime Achievement Award (a new category for 2012).
Nominations for the 2012 volunteer awards are due Feb. 10. While the volunteers being nominated must be Medfield residents, those submitting nominations are not required to live in Medfield.
Do you have someone in mind who you’d like to nominate for a Medfield Foundation volunteer award? Just go to www.medfieldfoundation.org/volunteer.html to learn more and download the official nomination form.
In 2011, the Volunteer of the Year award recipient was Bob Luttman, and the Youth Volunteer of the Year Award recipient was Deirdre Walsh. Information about their community service efforts (and many others) can be found at http://www.medfieldfoundation.org.
The Medfield Foundation will recognize award recipients and nominees at a community event at 4 p.m., Sunday, March 18, at the Center at Medfield on Ice House Rd.
If you have questions about the MFI volunteer awards, or need additional information, just send an e-mail to mfivolunteeraward@gmail.com.
