Greater Shepparton Volunteer Awards now open

organisation

Greater Shepparton Mayor, Cr Kim O’Keefe, said those willing to donate their time and effort are the foundation upon which the Greater Shepparton community has been built on.

“This year particularly is very exciting. The Pandemic Response categories have been added to celebrate those individuals and groups who made a positive difference in their local neighbourhood or an organisation/group that had influence across Greater Shepparton.”

“Aside from the pandemic categories, there are many different ways to volunteer, including in emergency services, education, sport, environment, the arts and much more,” Cr O’Keefe said.

“We strongly encourage anyone who knows of a volunteer to nominate them for an award so they can be recognised for their contribution to our community.”

Nominations close on Friday 25 February 2022.

The Volunteer Recognition Award nomination form, guidelines and eligibility criteria can be found on Greater Shepparton City Council’s website.
