Nominations for Young Achievers Award 2024

YAA 2023 Sebastian Antoine, Sarah Hanoona

Vocational Service is an important mission of Rotary. Each year the Rotary Club of Melbourne offers a number of awards to reward excellence in education, training, and vocational contributions to our community.

The Rotary Club of Melbourne Young Achievers awards recognise and honour up to three outstanding young Victorians annually with an award and a cheque for $1,500.  Awardees are invited to a luncheon meeting where a cheque and a Certificate of Achievement are presented.  In 2024, the awards are expected to be presented in May. Awardees briefly address the Club on their experiences and aspirations.

If you know of persons who may qualify for this award, please discuss this with Reg Smith, Iqbal Reta, Marg Leser or other members of the Vocational Service Committee.
