GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — The Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires, in partnership with The Berkshire Eagle, will host the 6th annual Berkshire Nonprofit Awards on Tuesday, May 23 at Berkshire Hills Country Club in Pittsfield. 

 

The awards recognize work being done by individuals in the nonprofit sector.

 

"Everyone seems excited to return to an in-person event," says NPC founder Liana Toscanini. "The networking part of the celebration, being all together again, is something people look forward to."

 

Nominations are being solicited from across the Berkshires in seven categories: Executive Leadership, Board Leadership, Rock Star, Unsung Hero, Volunteer, Youth Leadership and Lifetime Achievement. One honoree in each category will be chosen by a panel of judges and profiled in a special section in The Berkshire Eagle. 

 

Nominations are due March 17.

 

The NPC is currently seeking sponsors for this celebratory event, which is made possible by local businesses and foundations including Berkshire Bank Foundation, Berkshire United Way, Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation, Greylock Federal Credit Union, and Warrior Trading.
