Extraordinary Community Impact Award

Nomination




Honoring Those Who Make a Difference in Lakewood Ranch

Every day, individuals throughout the Lakewood Ranch community dedicate their time, talents, and passion to making our region a better place. Whether they are leading a nonprofit, mentoring youth, organizing volunteer efforts, supporting local causes, or simply showing up for their neighbors, these community champions deserve to be recognized.

The Outstanding Community Impact Award honors individuals whose commitment to service, leadership, and generosity has created a meaningful and lasting impact in the Lakewood Ranch community. The selected recipient will be recognized at the 2026 Soirée at the Ranch, taking place on October 1, 2026, and celebrated alongside community leaders, nonprofit partners, businesses, and supporters who are committed to strengthening Lakewood Ranch.

We invite you to nominate someone whose actions inspire others and embody the spirit of giving back. We encourage community members, colleagues, friends, family members, nonprofits, and local organizations to submit a nomination and help us recognize those who make Lakewood Ranch a stronger, more connected community.

The nomination period is open now and will conclude on August 14th, 2026. Please ensure that all submissions are received by the closing date.

For additional information or questions, email us at info@LWRCF.org.
