Nominations Open for YP of the Year—Due March 8

Do you know a young professional who volunteers for a non-profit? Or maybe someone who serves on a board of directors for a local organization? Or perhaps a young professional who recently opened a business in our area?

We are constantly amazed by those young professionals who are making a difference in our community! There are so many young professionals who deserve recognition, and this is why we hold FLEX Presents each year. Nominees do NOT need to be a FLEX or Chamber member to be recognized.

At this annual event, we celebrate nominees (and all young professionals) and name the Young Professional of the Year. Nominees must give back to our community and show qualities of a leader (see criteria below).

We hope you’ll consider nominating a young professional you see going above and beyond in our community, and help us give them much-deserved recognition.

NOMINATION GUIDELINES:

Nominees must:
• Live or work in Venango County and be 40 years old or younger.
• Participate in activities outside of their career that positively impact the wellbeing of others.
• Demonstrate exceptional ethics and works to enhance and preserve the region.

The nomination process includes a form, as well as a letter stating the candidate’s qualities for the award, written by the nominator. Find a nomination form at venangochamber.org/flex-presents.

Nominations are due by March 8.
