Individual Award Nomination

Background
This award celebrates volunteers aged over 26 years old who have made an outstanding contribution in our community.

Nominees will be judged on their voluntary work within the nominating organisation and the wider community. These services must be given voluntarily to help others without expecting any personal or financial gain.

• Judging will be conducted solely by a committee nominated by Volunteering Waikato. The judges’ decision will be final.

• Any nominee, individual or team, cannot be nominated more than twice in any three-year period, unless the new nomination demonstrates something significant that was not present in the previous nominations.

1. A digital photo of the nominee must be attached to the form. The photograph must clear, suitable for print, and must be a minimum of 1mb in size. This must be provided before the closing date.
