Citizens in communities who have gone above and beyond through their volunteering efforts can be nominated for the 2020 Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal.
“We absolutely rely on volunteers who make important contributions in our communities,” Lieutenant Governor Russ Mirasty said. “Please help us to recognize these generous and capable people by nominating a deserving individual for the Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal.”
Saskatchewan has the highest rate of volunteerism in the country.
The Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal was established in 1995 to formally recognize the selfless devotion of the province’s volunteers, who are role models in Saskatchewan.
Nominees must be a current or former long-term resident of Saskatchewan.
Individuals or groups can submit nominations, but nominations are not accepted for organizations.
New this year, nominations can be submitted online through the Saskatchewan government’s Volunteer Medal page.
The deadline to receive nominations is October 18, 2020.
