Nominations for the 2026 District Awards are now open. The Rotary District 5040 Awards recognize outstanding contributions made by Rotarians and their clubs.   Your nominations highlight achievements in various categories and inspire greater engagement. We learn from recipients’ entries, making recognition valuable.

As described on the District Awards page, categories include: > Outstanding Club of the Year >  Rotarian of the Year > Don Evans People of Action Award > Rotary Public Image Award > Membership Awards (to be awarded later in the year based on year end results).

Since there is no District Conference in 2025-26, awards will be presented at the Installation of District Governor Elect Dean Hsieh in Richmond on June 27, 2026, or at other Area and club events.

Deadline for submission of nominations and entries will be on May 15, 2026.  Please send as early as possible to the Chair, D5040 Awards Committee at mbvelayo@gmail.com.  For details, please go to the D5040 Awards page.
