The West Virginia Nonprofit Association’s Awards for Excellence are designed to recognize the outstanding accomplishments of West Virginia Nonprofit organizations and increase awareness of the impact of the nonprofit sector in communities throughout the state of West Virginia. The foundation for the Awards for Excellence are West Virginia’s Principles and Practices for Nonprofit Excellence.
Eligibility and Criteria:
Created by the WVNPA, the awards are open to any 501(c)3 nonprofit organization located in West Virginia. There is no fee to apply for the award. Organizations do not have to be a member of the WVNPA to apply. Applications are welcome from small, medium, and large nonprofits as well as new or well-established organizations. Organizations can self-nominate or be nominated by someone else. Awards are based on the organization as a whole and not on one specific program. Winners will receive an award, be recognized at WVNPA’s annual conference in Charleston, October 12 & 13, 2017, on WVNPA’s website, and in a statewide press release, and receive one free registration to the annual conference.
