Selection Process

To ensure fairness and an unbiased selection process, the Community Fabric Award Selection Committees consist of a past recipient, a female representative, and a minority representative. These knowledgeable committee members bring diverse perspectives to the table and ensure that recipients are chosen based on their demonstrated excellence, rather than being selected by the Foundation.
