In 2013, NMC’s Board of Directors established the “NMC Community Service Award” to recognize an individual or organization residing in Franklin or Grand Isle Counties who exhibits enthusiasm, integrity, and perseverance beyond the ordinary to help fellow citizens and the community through selfless giving to improve the overall health of the community – be it money, talent, or time.

Criteria for consideration include:

• Outstanding contribution to community service.
• A legacy of community leadership and partnerships to improve the health of the community.
• Service as a role model for measurable contributions to enhancing the quality of life in our area.
• Exhibiting outstanding skills which are generously given.
• Demonstrating a level of leadership that inspires others.
• Developing and fostering the virtues and skills of civic engagement and social responsibility.
• Demonstrating a sustained commitment to identifying and meeting community needs.

The NMC Board, Staff, Medical Staff, Auxiliary, Volunteers, and Incorporators are invited to nominate individuals. The NMC Board will select the recipient following a review of the nominees and will present the award at the Spring Meeting of the NMC Incorporators.
