ServeWyoming Nonprofit Impact Award

This year the Wyoming Nonprofit Impact Award will recognize organizations, or groups who have demonstrated innovation, diversity, sound fiscal strategies, and a lasting impact on Wyoming communities, by using TIME, TALENT, and TREASURE. For example: how has your organization managed TIME efficiently, how have you created or actively sought new TALENT, or what new TREASURES have you found to effectively deliver services? In other words, how has your organization used the time, talent, and treasure of your staff, volunteers/board, and donors to make an impact in your community and meet your mission?

The top three finalists will be notified by April 30, 2010 and will be required to send a representative to the Wyoming Philanthropy Days conference award ceremony in Laramie, Wyoming, June 17, 2010 (all expenses paid). The organization with the most votes will be selected to receive an unrestricted grant of $1000.00. Voting will be available online and at Wyoming Philanthropy Days. Voting will close on June 17, 2010 at 5:00pm.

Applications for the Nonprofit Impact Award are welcome from small, medium, or large groups that are an established 501(c)(3) or have a fiscal sponsor and are due by April 15, 2010.

Wyoming Community Foundation Spirit of Philanthropy Award

The Spirit of Philanthropy Award was established in the fall of 2001 by the Board of Directors of the Wyoming Community Foundation in honor of one of the Community Foundation's earliest and most faithful benefactors.

PURPOSE: To celebrate the spirit of philanthropy in Wyoming and, in particular, to honor an individual or family who has demonstrated outstanding philanthropic leadership and, thereby, an extraordinary personal commitment to preserving and enhancing the quality of life for Wyoming citizens.

AWARD: The Newell B. Sargent Spirit of Philanthropy award will be made biennially, during Wyoming Philanthropy Days. The Award recipient will receive a commemorative plaque, and will choose a charitable organization within Wyoming to receive a cash award. This year, the award provided by the Newell B. Sargent Foundation is $2000. The charitable recipient must be a 501(c)(3)organization and the Community Foundation's Board must approve the cash award.
