Consider nominating a deserving faculty, staff member or student for the Dr. William Winegard Exemplary Volunteer Involvement Awards. United Way of Guelph Wellington Dufferin and the Volunteer Centre of Guelph-Wellington have partnered with the University of Guelph through these awards to recognize volunteers who have:

  • demonstrated generosity of time and spirit
  • achieved outstanding service performed as a volunteer
  • inspired others to service, or
  • made an extraordinary contribution to an organization or issue or a single particularly notable accomplishment.

These awards recognize significant community involvement and charitable activities beyond what an individual does as an employee or student of the University. The awards recognize those activities that enrich the connection between the University of Guelph and the broader community.

If you know someone who is an outstanding community volunteer, consider nominating him or her for a Dr. William Winegard Exemplary Volunteer Involvement Award.

Nominations are due April 13.
