Awards of Distinction
Awards of Distinction is Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania’s signature fundraising event. Three events are held annually, one each in Pittsburgh, Erie and Johnstown. The Awards recognize outstanding girls, community leaders and corporations. Proceeds benefit operations and programming for GSWPA.
The Awards of Distinction model was developed in 2008 through committee input, and is closely related to the Girl Scout program where girls discover, connect, and take action. Potential honorees are recommended to the respective event planning committee and committee members review criteria and vote on candidates that best fit the criteria for each given award.
Nominate an honoree for the May 19, 2010 Awards of Distinction Ceremony today!
