THE FOUNDERS AWARD PROGRAM

The Founders Award program is a personal incentive program designed to encourage, monitor and recognize individual involvement in HFMA. The program provides an equitable way to translate activities into points. Over time, it will measure member involvement. You can look at a collected number of points to determine how active an individual member of HFMA is. The program features four different and sequential levels of awards, as follows:

The Follmer Bronze Award

The Reeves Silver Award

The Muncie Gold Award

The Founders Medal of Honor

The minimum amount of time for earning any of the awards is three years, and quite often, it’s more like 5 to 10 years. Therefore, the time it takes to win all four awards takes from 12 to 20 years, often spanning an entire career!

This year’s recipients are:

The Follmer Bronze

Danielle Gori

The Reeves Silver

Julianne Dreon

Candi Powers

Woody Turner

H. Ray Everett Award

Ruth H. Nicholson Award

Greg Taylor

Al Turner Past President Award
