"This year, we are doing something very different and unique for the Fernando Award. Rather than the traditional selection of that one individual who has done so much to help our community, we are taking the occasion of our 50 year anniversary to honor 50 outstanding Valley non-profit volunteer organizations as a tribute to the first 50 recipients of the Fernando Award. Most of these organizations have been supported by our previous recipients, so this becomes a fitting salute to them as well."
