Do you know someone who has made an outstanding contribution to the community? Fleming College is currently seeking nominations for its award program that recognizes dedicated community service.

The Brian L. Desbiens Community Service Awards are given out annually – one to a Fleming College employee and one to a member of the public.

The awards were created to recognize citizens who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to and concern for their community country or beyond. Through volunteer work and within their career these candidates have exceeded expectations putting their ideas and skills to practical use for the benefit of others.

Please note candidates for the internal award must be employees of Fleming College while candidates for the external award can be any citizen who lives in Peterborough Haliburton or Northumberland counties or the City of Kawartha Lakes which are all served by Fleming College’s campus locations. Members of the public are encouraged to nominate candidates for either award.

Nominations will be accepted starting Tuesday Oct. 3. All nominations must be submitted by  4 p.m.  on  Monday Oct. 23. The awards will be presented later this fall.

Don’t miss this opportunity to nominate a deserving candidate. For a nomination form or more information please contact Laura Copeland Communications Officer at  705-749-5530 x 1370  or  laura.copeland@flemingcollege.ca.
