The national network of the Federation of Alliances Françaises in the United States would not what it is today without the hard work of our chapter members and volunteers. In order to recognize this important asset to the organization, the Federation of Alliances Françaises is giving out a Volunteer of the Year Award, for an outstanding member of a chapter who has shown an outstanding effort to promote French language and culture. The recipient will receive the award and be recognized at the convention and annual meeting in October. In order to receive the award, the recipient must be a member of an Alliance Française chapter. The award will recognize both the volunteer member and their chapter, splitting an prize of $500. There are four categories under which a chapter member can be nominated:
a. Administrative support in the Member Chapter which can be documented
b. Committee involvement in an Member Chapter fundraiser
c. A leadership role in any recruitment of funds for the Member Chapter
d. Recruiting volunteers for Member Chapter’s (fundraising) events
Do you know of a member of our Charlottesville chapter whose volunteer work has been an asset to the organization? Is there a member who has truly made a difference through their time and dedication to French language and culture? If so, we would love for you to nominate them! This is a very exciting award that AF C'ville would love to see one of our members win! Please download the entry form on our volunteer page and send the completed version to media@afcville.org. The deadline for any submissions is September 1st. Bonne chance tout le monde!
