impact in the community. This year, 42 recipients will be recognized and each
will receive, via mail, a 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 to 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.
