NRCS Foundation Annual Awards Program

Our Annual Awards Program has grown over the years to become one of the most prestigious events celebrating charitable giving and community service in the Farmville Community.

With over 100 guests in attendance, the evening is renowned for bringing together business and community leaders, elected officials, educators, executives, churches, young professionals and local citizens.

Collectively this fundraiser has awarded over $100,000 in scholarships to high school and college students.

We can only be successful with our efforts and continue our extensive record of service to the citizens of the Farmville Community by partnering with Corporate Sponsors. We would consider it an honor if you accepted this invitation to join us as a corporate sponsor for this spectacular evening.

For your convenience, we have enclosed a list of sponsorship opportunities and a response form. Please watch for an announcement of our upcoming events. Thank you for your consideration, we sincerely appreciate your support.
