The contest aims recognize employees who are leaders in their community through volunteering and fundraising activities. To enter, Siemens employees from across the country shared their stories of community involvement. Applications were shortlisted by Siemens employees through online voting and winners were selected by a committee made up of members of the Executive Management team that oversee Siemens’ CSR activities. Two $10,000 donations were awarded to winners in the fundraising and volunteering categories with two additional $5,000 donations awarded to the runners-up in each category. The winner of the volunteering category, Scott Nameth of Cambridge, ON, chose to grant the donation to the Scorpions Youth Volleyball Club.
