The City is calling on Vaughan-based non-profit organizations and community groups to put forward one outstanding volunteer whose passion and actions have made a distinct positive impact on the community last year. 

Nominations will be accepted until Wednesday, April 9. To submit a nomination, visit vaughan.ca/VolunteerAwards.

Here is the nomination criteria:

• Only one volunteer may be nominated from each organization.
• The nominator must be a member on the governing board of the organization submitting the nomination.
• Volunteers may not nominate themselves.

This year, the City will honour the outstanding volunteers of 2024 at a special ceremony at Vaughan City Hall (2141 Major Mackenzie Dr.) on Wednesday, April 30 at 7 p.m. During the event, recipients will receive a certificate and lapel pin from Mayor Steven Del Duca and Members of Council.
