Following receipt of this special California recognition, participants are encouraged to continue serving towards additional levels of recognition provided by the President's Volunteer Service Award program.
California is the first state in the nation to partner with the President's Council and the Governor and First Lady's Service Award in this way.
You can submit your community hours to scoutingus@aol.com (Les Salay), a member of the Governor's and President's Volunteer committee who will gladly guide you through the submission process.
- Earning the Governor and First Lady's Service Award is easy!
- Complete 25 hours (children) or 50 hours (youth and adults) of service during a 12-month period.
- Submit your Record of Service to scoutingus@aol.com.
- Your personalized certificate will be sent to you via your certifying organization.
- Self-nomination is allowed, however your integrity is what matters the most.
To be recognized, service activities should meet national or community needs in the areas of youth achievement, parks and open spaces, healthy communities, and public safety and emergency response. Activities should be unpaid and may not include court-ordered community service.
For more information, please contact scoutingus@aol.com and let's all join together and be recognized for our service to our communities and nation as Scouting volunteers!
