President's Volunteer Service Award

At Queen City Robotics Alliance (QCRA), we deeply value the efforts of our volunteers and students who dedicate their time and talent to advancing STEM opportunities in our community. Their contributions not only drive our mission but also inspire others to join the movement. To celebrate their impact, we have established a comprehensive recognition program that acknowledges their dedication and achievements.

As a certifying organization for the Presidential Volunteer Service Award (PVSA), QCRA honors exceptional volunteers whose efforts meet the criteria set by PVSA. This nationally recognized award celebrates individuals who demonstrate outstanding commitment through their service hours. Each competition season, we assess the contributions of our volunteers and students, categorizing recognition by the level of their contribution: Bronze, Silver, Gold, or the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award.

Our recognition process reflects the core values in emphasizing the importance of service and leadership. By logging their hours, volunteers and students can qualify for PVSA awards, which serve as a testament to their hard work and dedication.  We are proud to shine a light on the remarkable efforts of those who make our mission possible, inspiring others to give back and build stronger, more innovative communities.
