Southwest Washington Lifetime of Giving award opens nominations

The Community Foundation for Southwest Washington is accepting nominations for its 2021 Lifetime of Giving Award.

An online nomination form is available at cfsww.org/award. The deadline for submissions is 5 p.m. March 24 and recipients must live in Southwest Washington.

The local grantmaking organization established the award to recognize community members who make significant personal sacrifices throughout their lifetime in order to give more generously to others.

The Community Foundation welcomes all applicants and aims to ensure that honorees reflect the care and compassion of people across the region.

This award is part of the Southwest Washington Philanthropy Awards lineup, which is presented during the Community Foundation’s annual celebration. This year a virtual event is scheduled for June 1. Tickets go on sale April 1 and can be purchased at cfsww.org.

In addition to the Lifetime of Giving Award, this year’s Southwest Washington Philanthropy Awards will also present a Philanthropist of the Year Award, which recognizes and celebrates individuals, foundations and corporations who demonstrate outstanding charitable leadership and serve as exemplars of generosity.
