The Government of Saskatchewan is accepting nominations for the Premier’s Service Club Award. Nominations will be accepted until Friday, September 30.
“These awards are a way to acknowledge the exceptional contributions that service clubs make in our community,” Premier Brad Wall said. “I encourage residents to consider nominating those groups that help make Saskatchewan an even greater place to live.”
Launched in 2013, the Premier’s Service Club Award was created to recognize dedicated service clubs and fraternal organizations that help improve Saskatchewan’s quality of life.
Voluntary, non-profit service and fraternal clubs that perform charitable work by hands-on effort or raising money for other organizations are eligible. Up to four awards will be given annually. The awards are in the form of a framed certificate signed by the Premier.
