In order to encourage and recognize outstanding volunteer service and
inspire others to volunteer, the President’s Council on Service and Civic
Participation created the President’s Volunteer Service Award. These Awards
will honor those Americans who have made serving a central part of their
lives and show that when you help your neighbor, you are helping your
nation.
Awards are given to youth ages 14 and under who have completed 50 or more
hours of volunteer service; to individuals 15 and older who have completed
100 or more hours; and to families or groups who have completed 200 or more
hours. Lifetime achievement is recognized with a special President's Call to
Service Award, which honors those who have provided more than 4,000 hours of
service over the course of their lifetime.
