In 2012 as part of its 50th Anniversary, PGICA instituted a recognition committee of PGICA Past Presidents to honor residents of PGI who made a difference in our community. The work of this committee continues today. We need you to nominate people who will be honored at our Annual PGICA Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon.
We are looking for people who go above and beyond the normal volunteerism.
Past honorees have had relief work experience in Haiti, they have organized the boat parade, started a new club, worked with Tallahassee to get PGI inlets dredged deeper, and donated hours to charities throughout Charlotte County.
There are many people in our community that are doing marvelous things. We just need to know who they are.
Honorees must have lived in Punta Gorda Isles and be current or past members of the PGICA. They may have volunteered for the City of Punta Gorda, various boards, volunteer policing, Coast Guard or other boating organizations, also hospitals, clinic, working with children, the elderly, or other Charlotte County charities.
The Recognition Committee encourages members and residents to nominate a person who has made a difference in our community.
An applicant will be evaluated based on:
- their volunteerism
- the importance of the contribution to the community
- the long-term impact of their contribution
- a set of intangible criteria determined by the individual members of the committee
