Volunteer of the Year Ebby Halliday Community Service Award

The Volunteer of the Year Ebby Halliday Community Service Award was created to recognize an individual who has made a significant impact to the community by donating time, money, and/or material goods to a program that improves the livability of a local community and is suitable as a role model for all real estate professionals.  The award is a tribute to one of our Association’s most esteemed and beloved members. She was also one of our most active community service volunteers – Ebby Halliday.

The Award winner will be selected based on the following criteria:

  • Contributions to a program(s) that improves the livability of a local community. Those activities are not limited to real estate or housing issues, and may include such things as crime prevention, youth mentoring, homelessness prevention, neighborhood improvement, the arts, environmental, quality of life and health.
  • Significant contribution of personal time, but contributions of money, materials, or other resources will also be considered by the selection committee.
  • The level of personal contribution, impact of personal contribution, broadness of impact, and the individual as a role model for other real estate professionals.

Some portion of the nominee’s community work must have taken place between January 2019 and October 2019, but the selection committee will also consider ongoing efforts outside that time frame that demonstrate a depth of commitment. The award is intended to recognize individual contributions, not association or company-wide efforts. However, if an individual within your company can be singled out as a leader instrumental to the success of a group effort, he or she is eligible. If the achievements of two people (such as a married couple or co-founders of an organization) absolutely cannot be separated, they can enter as a pair and their entry will be considered as one.

All REALTOR® Members of the Association are invited to submit a recommendation form for any eligible candidate for this award. Nominees may self-nominate or be nominated by another member.
