Announcing the 2023 Community Hero Award

The Rotary Club of Westlake Village Sunrise is looking for a unique kind of hero – a quiet community hero whose selfless and dedicated volunteer service has made a significant impact on their community. Nonprofit organizations and government services that work towards enhancing the health, education, safety, and welfare of communities depend heavily on volunteers. These unsung heroes often engage in thankless tasks, which may be deemed too risky or boring by others. But their consistent, reliable service makes a difference over time and improves the quality of life for everyone in their communities.

We are searching for those quiet heroes who show up where they are needed and light up the lives of those they serve with their compassion and engagement. They see the value in helping people who may be feeling hopeless and depressed, and their actions instill hope and motivate them to keep going.

We all have encountered such heroes in our lives, and it’s time to recognize and celebrate them. If you know someone who fits this description, nominate them for the Annual Community Hero Award.

Join us in honoring these remarkable individuals who are making a difference in our communities!

To nominate your community hero, fill out the Community Hero Nomination form linked below by April 21, 2023. The 2023 Community Hero will be announced during our meeting on June 15, 2023.

Please note that members of The Rotary Club of Westlake Village Sunrise are not eligible for this award as the club has other recognition programs for its members.
