Eligible honorees are those whose work produces tangible regional impact in DC, Northern Virginia, or Maryland, including volunteers, nonprofit leaders, teachers, founders, and organizational transformers who go beyond job expectations. The program typically selects ten winners each year and maintains a database of past nominees for future consideration. Honorees are asked to attend a private January luncheon that is not open to the public.
