I am proud to nominate {Name} for the {Award Name} Community Service Award. A lifelong friend and a {number}-year member of {organization}, {Name} has dedicated {his/her} life to volunteer work, community programs, and youth outreach. There is no one more dedicated to our social foundation or the kindness required to inspire an entire community.
{Name} worked as a {profession} for {amount of time}, and has always used that expertise and knowledge in {his/her} volunteer work at {places where volunteered}. I have seen {him/her} {canvass for local events, raise money for charities, clean up parks, help plant gardens, run bake sales, etc.} for more than {amount of time}. {He/she} is usually the first one to start a project, but {his/her} exuberance is infectious. Last year, {he/she} proposed a project to {purpose}, and within {amount of time} {he/she} had encouraged more than {number} people to join-and had raised {amount of money} to boot!
{Name} is a staple in this community. {He/she} runs {organization}, is a leading figure in {his/her} religious community at {Organization Name}, and {other activities or charitable events}. I don't know if I've ever met someone who has made me more excited to meet new people and work with them toward a common goal. I never realized until {he/she} pointed it out that all of us are creating the fabric of our community every day, with every choice, so why not make it intentional with people we can get to know and like?
{Name} is an inspiration, and well-loved by everyone who knows {him/her}. I will close with a brief list of {his/her} projects and their impact in this community, so that {his/her} actions can speak for themselves:
{Project, Impact}
