Individual Award
A Mentor of the Year Award will be given to a BPW/KY member who has demonstrated an exceptional commitment to mentoring. The purpose of the Mentor Award is to identify and recognize BPW members who contribute to the growth and development of the other BPW members.
This award is given each year to recognize a BPW member for outstanding service, for living the Federation philosophy of "Women Helping Women," for serving as a role model, and for making a difference. All nominations are independently judged. All nominees will be recognized; however, only one mentor award will be given at the State Conference.
Criteria:
1. Both the mentor and the person submitting the nomination must be BPW members in good standing.
2. A mentor can only win the award one time, but may be nominated more than once.
Those making a nomination are asked to reply to the following questions:
1. How has this Mentor nominee made you a better BPW member?
2. Why are you a better person or more successful because of this person?
3. Why do you think this person deserves to be honored as a Mentor?
4. Tell you Mentor's BPW history, i.e.; offices held, awards, etc.
5. In a summary paragraph, you may make other comments and include any information you feel is pertinent to the nomination.
