CLEARWATER, Fla., March 08, 2018 -- The Church of Scientology and the Tampa Bay Charity Coalition will hold their annual National Volunteer Week Volunteer Recognition Awards Banquet April 18 at the iconic Fort Harrison religious retreat to honor volunteers for their service to their community.
The banquet includes a five-star buffet dinner prepared by the award-winning Fort Harrison chefs.
“We provide this banquet free of charge to members of Tampa Bay area nonprofit organizations and their volunteers,” said Mr. Dylan Pires, Community Affairs Director for the Church of Scientology in Clearwater. “They do so much in the community and deserve to be acknowledged.”
The event will feature guest speakers and an awards ceremony. Nonprofit groups that would like to nominate their volunteers for inclusion in the event are invited to do so.
National Volunteer Week was created in 1974 to recognize and celebrate the efforts of the nonprofit community. It has since broadened its scope to include a nationwide campaign to increase the ranks of community volunteers.
For more information or to nominate volunteers to receive the award, contact Dylan Pires at [email protected] or call (727) 467-6860.
The National Volunteer Week Volunteer Recognition Awards Banquet is hosted by the Church of Scientology Fort Harrison international religious retreat. Since its construction in 1926, the Fort Harrison has held many community and charitable events—more than 500 since its top-to-bottom restoration in 2009.
The Scientology religion was founded by author and philosopher L. Ron Hubbard. The first Church of Scientology was formed in Los Angeles in 1954 and the religion has expanded to more than 11,000 Churches, Missions and affiliated groups, with millions of members in 167 countries.
