Good Neighbor Award

Good Neighbor nominations are now being accepted for 2023!  Please make your nominations on the form below by December 31, 2023.

Do you have a neighbor who volunteers when no one else will, lends a helping hand without being asked, whose efforts both large and small make Worthington a better place to live? Please take time to nominate them for the Good Neighbor Award. Individuals who make our neighborhoods and our community such a special place to live often go about their good deeds without any special recognition. The Community Relations Commission has presented the Good Neighbor Award each year since 1993 to thank members of the community who promote cooperation and goodwill throughout their neighborhood.

Nominations are accepted in two categories: Adult (age 18 or over) and Youth (under age 18). All nominees must live in the City of Worthington. The activity for which the individual is nominated may not be part of paid employment or a required school activity. All nominees should exemplify a good neighbor. 

For more information contact CRC staff liaison Ethan Barnhardt via email at ethan.barnhardt@worthington.org or by phone at 614-786-7347.
