The Baton Rouge State Fair Foundation is pleased to announce our 27th Annual Outstanding Volunteer program for 2022. Every high school in the Greater Baton Rouge area may select a member of the junior class who has given time and talent as a volunteer in school, religious organizations, and community activities.

Each Outstanding Volunteer will receive a cash award in the amount of $500. In addition, ten (10) Outstanding Volunteers will receive an additional $500 (total of $1,000), and two participants (one male and one female) will receive a total of $2,500 each in recognition of their exceptional contributions to their communities.

The deadline for receipt of all student forms and materials is Monday, April 25,. The cash awards along with certificates of honor will be presented to these outstanding students at a reception to be held on Sunday afternoon, May 15. The location of that event is pending.

If you have any questions, please contact Foundation Board Chair Greg Edwards at gedward5@bellsouth.net or at 225-921-1362.
