Outstanding Service Award

This award is to be given to a NANPA member who has served NANPA in an extraordinary way. The NANPA member’s volunteer service should be significant, both in its positive impact upon/benefit to NANPA and in the effort required and/or the dedication displayed.

This award is intended to recognize a NANPA member’s volunteer service in any capacity to NANPA as an organizational entity. The duration of the NANPA member’s volunteer service can vary in duration (e.g., short-term project to resolve a very complex and/or urgent problem vs. long-term service in numerous volunteer roles). The most significant factor should be the demonstrated or “realistically anticipated” positive impact upon/benefit to NANPA.
