REGINA — Nominations are now being accepted for the 2024 Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal.
"In Saskatchewan we are proud of not only our quantity of volunteers - with the highest rate of volunteerism in the country - but the quality of our volunteers," Lt.-Gov. Russ Mirasty said.
"That generosity of spirit, coupled with great capability, keeps our tournaments, fundraisers, festivals, cultural events and celebrations thriving. The Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal is a tangible way to reward our outstanding volunteers for making a positive impact in our communities."
The Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal was established in 1995 to recognize the devotion of the province's volunteers formally, and as a way to present role models to Saskatchewan citizens.
Individuals or groups are encouraged to nominate current or former long-term residents of Saskatchewan who go above and beyond for their community through volunteerism.
Nominations will be received until Oct. 31. Online nominations are encouraged, but nominations will also be accepted by mail, courier or in-person.
