• Rising Star Award (A younger or emerging individual who is making an impact in the philanthropic community.)
• Public Spirit Award (Organizations and/or individuals who have successfully brought multiple resources together to meet a philanthropic need.)
Nominating information is available on the Foundation’s website at www.rentonfoundation.org.
