Celebrating Outstanding Volunteers
The Royden Richardson National Volunteer Awards were inspired by Royden Richardson, a longtime JA volunteer. They recognize volunteers whose participation in, and lasting contribution to, JA and its programs locally and/or nationally has immeasurably furthered the aims and objectives of JA in Canada. Two awards are available – one for a Program Volunteer, the other for a Governance Volunteer.
