Unsung Heroes 1996 - 2009
Each year, projects that have received a VHCF grant nominate their Unsung Heroes, those unique individuals and teams whose talents and energy make such a big difference. A distinguished panel of judges selects a winner from each of five categories (Volunteer, Donor, Physician, Team and Employee).
The Unsung Heroes are honored at VHCF's annual Heroes in Health Care event. Each winner receives both a statuette and a $2,000 check to the affiliated VHCF grantee -- funding made possible by the Virginia Association of Health Plans. VHCF is honored to recognize these outstanding individuals and teams.
