The Egyptian American Society will start recognizing Egyptian Americans for their achievements that include services to the community as well as prominence in one's field.
The EAS Outstanding Achievement Award is an annual award that is bestowed on an Egyptian American who has had considerable and significant contributions in such fields as the arts, sciences, business, literature, education or in service to the community. Its purpose is to recognize, with admiration and pride, the contributions of Egyptian Americans.
The selection process requires careful consideration by the Selection Committee of the EAS. The committee is composed of the following four Egyptian American representatives:
- Amany Ghanem
- Sameh Michaiel
- Nabil Ghobrial
- Youssri Helmy
Most important, the process requires participation by the EAS membership in making nominations for this prestigious award. Therefore, we urge you to nominate worthy individuals for the award.
Please send your nominations by email to eascafe@gmail.com no later than Friday, November 6, 2009. Make sure to include a bio of the nominee. The Selection Committee will keep the names of the nominees and the entire process, in all of its aspects, in strict confidence.
