Hints and Cautions
- Qualification criteria include being 19 years of age or older and each person nominated MUST have served at least 500 hours between January 1 and December. Younger volunteers may be eligible for recognition through the Young Maine Volunteer Roll of Honor.
- Complete ALL fields in the nomination document. Names, hours, and town of residence will be listed in the newspaper, online for 9 months, and at other recognition.
- The organization listed under "Nominator Contact Information" will appear on the volunteers' certificates as the program operator. The name of the volunteer program in the organization should be entered in the document table of volunteer info. This means one document can be used for multiple volunteer programs in an agency.
- Data in the nomination document (names, hours, town of residence) is used to create certificates, media listings, website recognition, etc. NO corrections are made to your text entries. Please use upper/lower case when entering and have a proofreader go through the sheet before you submit.
- Each person nominated must have a full data set (hours, program name, town of residence) in order for recognition to be correct on certificates and in the media.
- The table format is required because they can be used as database sources for certificates and lists. Submit a document table even when there are only a few nominees.
