The City of Vaughan’s Volunteer Recognition Awards is an annual event that honours the outstanding contributions of local volunteers. This year, the ceremony will be held virtually on Wednesday, April 27 at 7 p.m. at vaughan.ca/VolunteerAwards.

Not-for-profit organizations and community groups in Vaughan were encouraged to nominate one outstanding volunteer from 2021 whose passion and actions have made a positive impact in the community. This year, 55 recipients will be recognized, and each will receive a framed volunteer recognition certificate, congratulatory letter and lapel pin from Mayor Maurizio Bevilacqua.

Awards will be presented to youth aged 13- to 24-years-old and adults over the age of 25 whose dedication to assisting others has been exceptional. Volunteers are recognized for their generous community service in donating their time and energy to important causes, contributing to the success and quality of life in the city of Vaughan and beyond.

National Volunteer Week takes place each year in April. It pays tribute to the millions of Canadian volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to making a difference in their local community.
