Past Recipients

You work every day to make it better for children, teenagers, adults, seniors…or any of God’s other creatures or maybe even Mother Earth herself. You help the ill, the unfortunate, whoever needs a hand. Your work is done in a school, hospital, church, temple, synagogue, museum, clinic, zoo, senior center, youth club or any number of other organizations that reach out to others in need.
