Jefferson Awards
The Jefferson Awards for Public Service were established to recognize and honor individuals whose community service efforts best exemplify dedication to enhancing the quality of life in their community. Pace University became a Champion of the Jefferson Awards for Public Service in 2008. Nominations are solicited from the university community and finalists are selected based on their personal, sustained commitment to service, and for the model of spirit and service they provide the university community.
The Center for Community Action and Research seeks nominations from Pace University students, faculty, and staff for the 2013 Jefferson Awards for Public Service. If you or someone you know is making a difference in the community, nominate them today. Nominations are due by February 18!
