The annual Best of Philanthropy Awards honor everyday individuals, businesses, and groups in our community who are making a difference through their life’s work, demonstrating the true meaning and value of helping others. Nominations are accepted from the community and winners are selected in four categories.

The winners are recognized with an engraved award, a video highlighting their accomplishment, and a $1,000 donation in their name to a nonprofit of choice in the Foundation’s 11-county service area.
