GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass.—The Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires, in partnership with The Berkshire Eagle, will present the ninth annual Berkshire Nonprofit Awards breakfast on Tuesday, May 19, from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Country Club of Pittsfield.

The awards recognize individuals who work in the nonprofit sector to serve the Berkshire community.

"In the midst of some challenging years for the nonprofit sector, it's imperative that we make space to honor those in our community who are doing incredible work day in and day out," said McCaela Donovan, Associate Director of the Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires. "This event creates space for joy and recognition, which is essential in this moment. If you know someone making a difference, please take the time to nominate them."

Nominations are being solicited from across the Berkshires in seven categories: Executive Leadership, Board Leadership, Unsung Hero, Volunteer, Rock Star, Lifetime Achievement, and the Samya Rose Stumo Youth Leadership Award. 

Honorees—one in each category—will be selected by a committee of business and nonprofit leaders. Nomination forms are available at npcberkshires.org/nominate. The deadline for submissions is March 13.

The Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires is an infrastructure and support organization for the Berkshire nonprofit sector- which employs one in four people in Berkshire County. Now in its tenth year, NPC is currently seeking sponsors for this celebratory event. For more information about sponsorship opportunities, contact McCaela Donovan at mccaela@npcberkshires.org.
