The President’s Volunteer Service Award (PVSA) is our country’s premier volunteer award program encouraging citizens to live a life of service through presidential gratitude and national recognition. The award is presented through the office of the President of the United States and the Elks Drug Awareness Program. The award encourages you to take a look around, be inspired and take positive action that changes the world.
The Elks Drug Awareness Program presents the lifetime PVSA to an adult who has volunteered 4,000 or more hours over their lifetime. To date, more than 2,000 volunteers nationwide have been recognized for their service. A second members of the Orange Elks Lodge #1475 has achieved this award. Bob Christian is the chairman of the lodge’s Major Project ("Purple Pig") effort. Inc. Over the last 25 years and Bob raised over $500,000 for this charity. These programs address the unmet needs of children with their disabilities by developing a program of supporting services to aid these children at no cost to the families and help hundreds of children with disabilities throughout California and Hawaii to Walk, Talk, See and Play!
Congratulations Bob!
