Last year’s Service Awards Breakfast was described as ‘both heartwarming and inspiring’ for those attending as the honorees’ stories were told in person and through short video vignettes
The Greater Clark County Rotary Foundation is thrilled to announce the second annual Service Awards Breakfast, a meaningful and moving event that honors local heroes from a diverse array of service fields, including first responders, nonprofits, schools, medical and military personnel.
Event details:
Thursday, March 20, 2025 at the Hilton Hotel, Vancouver, WA. Doors open at 7 A.M. with coffee immediately available. Program: 7:30 A.M. to 9:00 A.M. Parking is free for the first 300 cars at the nearby City parking lot courtesy of Evergreen Memorial Gardens.
Last year’s Service Awards Breakfast was both heartwarming and inspiring for those attending as the honorees’ stories were told in person and through short video vignettes. This year is expected to be even more moving as the award categories have been expanded and the presentations have been fine tuned for a fast-paced event.
Returning as Masters of Ceremonies are Vancouver Mayor Anne McEnerny-Ogle and KGW News Anchor Tim Gordon. The presenting sponsor is Pacific Lifestyle Homes and each award category has its own business or non-profit sponsor.
The driving force of this breakfast event is to recognize and applaud those individuals and groups whose acts of “service above self” have made a profound difference in our various Clark County communities. Funds raised at the event will be used by the Foundation to support their Avenues of Service.
Youth Service: college scholarships and other youth leader recognition
Community Service: countless projects in support of local families in need
Vocational Service: honoring all useful occupations
International Service: Education, training and clean water projects as well as youth exchange.
