Nominations must contain a list of the nominee’s community organizations, years of service and positions held. The committee also will consider how the individual’s volunteerism has impacted the nominating organization and the community and any other contributions to the community (special personal effort, in-kind or intangible contributions).

Each organization can nominate two volunteers (one man and one woman), and the winners will be selected by a committee comprised of previous Man & Woman of the Year honorees. The criteria are weighted as follows:

Volunteer effort (sweat equity) – 60 points
Years of service – 20 points
Number of 501(c)(3) organizations this individual has served – 10 points
Other (in-kind, financial, etc.) – 10 points

Each nomination also should include a brief biography of the nominee in 500 words or less and a high-resolution jpg image or print photograph of the nominee. Nominations can be e-mailed to laura@condiewood.com or mailed to SCV Man & Woman of the Year, P.O. Box 801060, Santa Clarita, CA 91380.
