PRESIDENTIAL VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARDS
About the President’s Volunteer Service Award
In 2003, the President’s Council on Service and Civic Participation founded the President’s Volunteer Service Award to recognize the important role of volunteers in America’s strength and national identity. This award honors individuals whose service positively impacts communities in every corner of the nation and inspires those around them to take action, too. The PVSA has continued under each presidential administration, honoring the volunteers who are using their time and talents to solve some of the toughest challenges facing our communities and organizing ways to bring us all together. Led by the Corporation for National and Community Service and managed in partnership with Points of Light, this program allows Certifying Organizations to recognize their most exceptional volunteers.
In 2017, I was awarded the Presidential Lifetime Volunteer Award through my Elite National American Women of Service title.
It opened my eyes to this amazing recognition program and I was determined to have my EMMF as part of their program.
In 2018, our Eric Medeiros Memorial Foundation became a registered certifying organization,
and now we can recognize and thank those wonderful citizens in our community for all they do to make our lives and the lives of others better.
It is with great pleasure that I recognize the following wonderful people in our community:

"Through my past community service, and my ambitious plans for the future, I hope my efforts have and will benefit my communities as much as that work has enriched my own heart. I am grateful for the American Women of Service pageant for being my catalyst for personal growth and self-confidence, helping me to recognize the value in my service and the power within to achieve my dreams."

"I don’t ever plan on not helping anyone or organization any time soon. I still serve on the Cub Scout Committee, and will forever be involved in Girl Scouts. I hope that one day I am able to serve my community in the capacity I do now, and possibly even more. Do a Good Turn Daily is the Boy Scout slogan, and something that I live by. I can see that my love for volunteerism and helping the community has made an impression on my children. Both are involved in Scouting and my Daughter involved with various organizations to help others with disabilities. My legacy will live on, even after I left the world; it will live on in my children, and hopefully their children. "
