HCMA Volunteer gem awards Program

Recognizing our volunteers who help the hcma educate, support and spread awareness to our hcm community

The HCMA has created the Volunteer GEM Awards (VGA) program to help us formally recognize each of our volunteers individually for their role in helping the HCMA educate, support and spread awareness to our HCM community.

The VGA program will encourage our volunteers to track the hours they dedicate throughout the year so we can recognize them at the end of each year with fun prizes and other forms of appreciation.

Prizes will be awarded for volunteer hours accumulated between September 1^st and August 31^st each year, and can include social media frames, honorable mention in our newsletter, on our website or in social media, a thank you voucher for a gift of your choice from our HCMA online store (the value of this voucher goes up with each GEM Award level) and more!
