Prestigious Award Honors Outstanding
Commitment to Volunteer Service
Brunswick,
Georgia – Cowboys and
Roses Renegade Ranch, Inc., today announced it has teamed with the White House to become a Certifying Organization for the
President’s Volunteer Service Award, a national program recognizing Americans
who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to volunteer service. Established in 2003, the Award
was created by President George W. Bush to give Presidential recognition to individuals, families and groups who meet requirements
for volunteer service, measured by the number of service hours performed over 12-months.
Cowboys and Roses Renegade Ranch, Inc. is one of thousands of organizations
that have joined forces to deliver the President’s Volunteer Service Award and
honor the volunteers who strengthen our Nation. As a Certifying Organization for the Award,
Cowboys and Roses Renegade Ranch is responsible for verifying service hours, nominating potential recipients and delivering
the Award.
“We are extremely proud to recognize our most
outstanding volunteers with the President’s Volunteer Service Award,”
said Janet Carswell, Founder & CEO. “Cowboys and Roses Renegade Ranch,
Inc. volunteers are role models in our community, donating their time, energy and talent to bring us closer together as neighbors
and a Nation. The Award is our way of thanking these volunteers and inspiring
everyone in our community to make volunteering a central part of their lives.”
“Even if you’ve never volunteered before,
the President’s Volunteer Service Award is within your reach,” Janet
Carswell said. “There are so many ways to contribute, and every volunteer hour makes a difference in improving the quality
of life for others. We encourage everyone to get involved and to bring along
your family, friends and neighbors. Together, we can strengthen America – one hour at a time.”
The Award
is issued by the President’s Council on Service and Civic Participation, a group convened by President George W. Bush
to help foster and encourage a culture of volunteer service and civic participation
among Americans. Chaired by two-time Super Bowl Champion Darrell Green, with former U.S. Senators Bob Dole and John Glenn as honorary co-chairs, the Council is composed
of leaders in government, media, entertainment, business, education, nonprofit and volunteer service organizations and community
volunteering.
