In recognition of her strong support for national service, Congresswoman Jackie Walorski (R-IN) received the Congressional Service Award from Voices for National Service, a coalition working to ensure Americans of all ages can serve and volunteer in their community.
The award was given to Representative Walorski in appreciation of her remarkable commitment to national service as a strategy to solve local issues and build stronger, healthier communities. It was presented to her at the 17th Annual Friends of National Service Awards in Washington, DC on February 11, 2020.
“I have always believed in the power of one person’s determination to make a difference for others,” said Representative Walorski. “With passion, hard work, and faith in the mission, anyone can contribute to the greater good and make the world a better place. I saw this firsthand in 2018 when AmeriCorps volunteers helped Hoosiers recover and rebuild after devastating flooding in Plymouth, Indiana. It is an honor to receive the Congressional Service Award from Voices for National Service, and I encourage Americans across the country to keep finding ways to give back, get involved, and serve others.”
