Award recognizes Indianapolis residents for commitment to community service
An Indianapolis tradition for nearly 30 years, the award recognizes and honors community members who volunteer their time and talents towards the betterment of Indianapolis and those who call it home.

Following tradition, each recipient's name will be engraved on individual bricks and added to the Mayor's Volunteer Plaza located in the 11th Street Admiral Spruance Basin on the Indianapolis Canal Walk.
