Michigan District Corporate Partner of the Year

The District Corporate Partner of the Year award was established to recognize corporate partners who advance the purposes of the District Optimists and Optimist International. Any District Optimist club may choose to nominate an individual business partner or corporation, which in the judgment of the club provided services, facilities, funds, personnel, etc. to help the club fulfill their goals and objectives as an Optimist organization.

The District Corporate Partner of the Year Committee will be comprised of at least three District Optimists in good standing appointed by the Governor annually. If no qualified candidate is selected, no award will be given.

The committee will evaluate nominations based on the following criteria:

  • Degree to which the corporation is involved with the youth of the community;
  • Degree to which the corporation helps to promote Optimism;
  • Sponsorship of an Optimist activity or project in the community; and
  • Financial grant(s) or assistance to the local clubs in the area.

All nominations must be received by the committee chair by June 1 of the current year. The committee chair will present the District Corporate Partner of the Year award at the District’s annual convention.
