This award recognizes an outstanding volunteer who has made a significant impact in promoting the core values and mission of AFS through their leadership. We eagerly await the announcement of the 2021 Mission Award Recipient who will be announced at the AFS Summit in November. We look forward to celebrating with volunteers in person and virtually when all award recipients are announced on Sunday, November 7.
Virtually or in-person, this will be an engaging weekend that will include opportunities for all to learn, collaborate, share, and celebrate.
Save the date for the 2021 Volunteer Summit, November 6-8. Our theme this year is “Leading Together”!
