The documentation of your community involvement is the vital part of this entry. It will be awarded entirely on what you show us that your employees have done in the community. The award is not about sponsorships, funding efforts, or money spent locally – it is about involvement & service by employees at your plant. Entries should list the events that your employees participated in, the number of employees involved, and the time that they spent engaged in them. Photos are a big help. Make sure that all photos are clearly labeled. Add extra sheets for explanations, if necessary.  We want to know what you do and who does it; and what makes your plant special.
