Award Nominations

Each year, GSPRA reaches out for nominations to find inspiring GSPRAns that we can recognize and honor. The nomination window is currently open and will close on Nov. 3, 2020. There are three awards that can go out to our comrades who are doing outstanding work in school PR. Please nominate individuals in our chapter, schools and/or communities that are well-deserving of recognition. It’s up to you to make sure they get the recognition they deserve, so don’t miss this opportunity!

The awards are as follows: 

Anne Raymond Distinguished Service Award: This award honors a GSPRA member for his or her commitment and dedication to the organization and to the profession. Typically, this member has gone above and beyond the call to support GSPRA and GSPRAns. Any GSPRA member in good standing may nominate a fellow member for this award. Only members in good standing are eligible for this award. Click here to submit a nomination.
