Process: At CRY America, we believe in creating peoples' movements to make a lasting difference to underprivileged children. In just 5 years of our existence, with the support of over 10,000 donors and 500 volunteers, CRY America has impacted the lives of over 150,000 children in India and the US living across 1,211 villages and slums through support to 30 Projects.
While Action Centers may take different forms and organize many different kinds of activities and events - each Action Center contributes to the growth and success of the organization. Volunteers work among their colleagues, friends, family and local community to to spread the mission, harness resources and keep the CRY America flag flying across the US. Volunteers give their time, money, skills and resources to ensure that the rights of children are restored.
The AC Volunteer Team Appreciation Awards is a way for all of us to appreciate and recognize the contribution made by volunteers. For volunteers to appreciate each other's efforts and for the organization to recognize the outstanding work of volunteers.
We had 5 Award Categories in 2008 against which we have received 7 nominations from AC's. Each AC submitted it's own story for consideration. Volunteers were requested to vote for one nominee in each Award Category in an Online Selection Poll to arrive at the winners.
