Vocational Service Award Recipients

Vocational Service is one of Rotary’s Avenues of Service.  Vocational Service calls every Rotarian to:

  • Aspire to high ethical standards in their occupation;
  • Recognize the worthiness of all useful occupations, and;
  • Contribute their vocational talents to the problems and needs of society.

The District presents an annual Vocational Service Award to the individual who best meets these criteria. Past recipients of the Vocational Service Award are listed below.
