Applications open for the Violet Richardson Award

Sep 24, 2018 | 10:38 AM

Applications for the Violet Richardson Award applications are being accepted now through January 1, 2019.

This award is a recognition program for young women ages 14-17 engaged in volunteer action within their communities or schools. Projects that benefit women and girls are especially valued. This award is an opportunity to honour a girl who might not otherwise receive recognition. She may not be the best student, the best athlete, or the most popular girl in school, but she is committed to making the world a better place.

The Soroptimist Club of Red Deer presents $500 to the winner and $500 to the charity of her choice. For applications please contact Sue Barthel at 403-346-7635 or susanbarthel1@gmail.com
