Citizen of the Year

The Rotary Club of Florence is seeking nominations for the 2023 Citizen of the Year Award. A candidate for Citizen of the Year should be a person or couple who has a heart to serve others. This typically is not someone who is constantly in the public eye but someone who “flies below the radar screen” and is not seeking public recognition. Nominations can be submitted online via www.florencerotary.org/coy and are due by 5:00 pm on Friday, August 2, 2024.

To be eligible, your nominee must:

Currently be a citizen of Northern Kentucky
Have the respect and admiration of their friends, neighbors and peers
Play an active and useful role in the community
Exemplify the “Service above Self” standard in his or her professional and community involvement

Rotary Club of Florence President Julie Pile said, “Our club strives to identify those who quietly serve in our community, those who do not seek the limelight. We want to honor these humble servants who are helping others and building into our community without seeking recognition for the important work they are doing.”

The Citizen of the Year Award was created in 1995 and has honored over 35 inductees since its inception. Previous recipients have included teachers, pastors, doctors, coaches, neighbors, non-profit directors, postmasters, missionaries, administrators and many others.

To nominate someone, please visit www.florencerotary.org/coy. Multiple letters of support are encouraged to demonstrate the nominee’s qualifications for the award. If a citizen has been previously nominated and was not the award winner, they are still eligible to receive the award.

Established in 1945, the Rotary Club of Florence consists of over 50 business and community leaders from across Boone County. The Rotary Club of Florence is a civic club that is part of Rotary International, an organization of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, and community leaders who come together to create positive, lasting change in our communities and around the world.

This year’s recipient will be honored at the club’s September 30, 2024 meeting.

The Rotary Club of Florence, Kentucky (serving all of Boone County) is a community service organization focusing on “service above self”. The club’s meeting are streamed live to the club’s YouTube Channel. Guests are always welcome.
