The Mayor’s Day of Service Recognition is an annual event to honor Philadelphia’s standout volunteers and National Service members.

The Mayor’s Office recognizes Philadelphia residents in the following four categories:

• Mayor’s Philly Hero Award
• Mayor’s Youth Hero Award
• Mayor’s Distinguished National Service Award
• Mayor’s Distinguished National Service Alumni Award

All nominees must be Philadelphia residents.

• The Mayor’s Philly Hero Award (for adults) and The Mayor’s Youth Hero Award (for youth) recognize individuals for their unique contributions to the city through service.
• The Mayor’s Distinguished National Service Award is given to current AmeriCorps or Senior Corps volunteers.
• The Mayor’s Distinguished National Service Alumni Award recognizes AmeriCorps, Senior Corps, or Peace Corps alumni who continue to devote their lives to making a difference through service.

We’re no longer accepting nominations for the 2019 Mayor’s Day of Service Recognition Awards. Please join us at the award ceremony on April 2 to celebrate our honorees.
