About the PVSA

Pages 4 Progress is an approved Certifying Organization (CO) for the President’s Volunteer Service Awards (PVSA). The PVSA is a prestigious national honor offered in recognition of community service. Established in 2003, this award honors individuals and groups who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to volunteer service over the course of 12 months. Community service hours can be accumulated on a variety of projects throughout the year.

The PVSA is awarded annually at the Bronze, Silver, and Gold levels. For many, earning one or more awards will be a noteworthy honor on future college or scholarship applications. Volunteer Scholars covers the cost of ordering and shipping the PVSA award to members. All members who earn a PVSA award will receive a certificate and their choice of a medallion on neck ribbon, a coin, or a lapel pin
