What is the Spirit of Volunteerism Awards Event?

Every year, the Spirit of Volunteerism Awards recognizes outstanding community volunteers, inspires active engagement, and fosters a culture that values and promotes the transformative power of service through volunteerism. Volunteer individuals and groups are nominated by their peers, nonprofits, and citizens of Collin County who take notice of their efforts. With these awards, we strongly affirm the importance of volunteers in our community. The annual awards ceremony recognizes and honors the individuals and groups that meet the criteria for each specific award.

We will have 300 guests in attendance, including community leaders, volunteers, nonprofit executives, and city leadership from McKinney and cities throughout Collin County.
