Nominate for 2013 City of Destiny Awards

Nominate your favorite volunteer for the City of Destiny Awards. The City is currently accepting nominations for the annual awards, which recognize exceptional individuals and organizations that go above and beyond to volunteer their time and energy to enhance the quality of life in Tacoma.

Individual categories include adult and youth leadership, youth service, and adult lifetime service awards. Group awards include neighborhood groups or community partnerships; employee or union group, youth group, and environmental sustainability.

To qualify for a City of Destiny Award, your nominee (individual or group) must have:

 
• Volunteered time and energy, not money.

 
• Volunteered without financial compensation for their work.

 
• Volunteered within Tacoma’s city limits.

 
• Volunteered within the past 12 months in the projects described for Leadership and Group categories.

 
• Volunteered in a different category if they have previously received a City of Destiny award, or in the same category seven years after receiving a City of Destiny award.

The nomination form is available online at www.CityofTacoma.org/CityOfDestinyAwards. You’ve got until Friday, January 18, 2013 to return the form to the City Manager’s Office by hand, fax, email, or snail mail, but why not get it done early?
