Established in 1993, the Fairfax County Volunteer Service Awards serve as a community-wide celebration of volunteerism. The Awards honor individuals, groups and organizations that have given outstanding volunteer service through a broad range of activities and programs.
Over the last 26 years, Volunteer Fairfax has recognized more than 3,000 individuals for their commitment to the community. Our community is a better place because of volunteers. Honor your best supporters at Volunteer Fairfax's annual county-wide volunteer recognition event, attended by more than 500 community members. Individuals and groups can be nominated in one of 14 competitive categories and four non-competitive categories. All nominees receive a complimentary invitation to the event.
The 2018 Nominees will be honored at the annual awards breakfast on Friday, April 27, 2018 at the Waterford at Springfield – 6715 Commerce St. Springfield, VA 22150.
Registration for this event has now closed.
