Nominations: Housing and Food Services employees are encouraged to nominate their most deserving colleagues.

Honorariums: Each award is accompanied by an honorarium drawn from the Housing and Food Services Endowment, which David Gingher, director of Food Services, and Ed Mulfinger, assistant general manager of Commonwealth Housing and Food Services, established in 2003 with an investment of $25,000.

Contributions: Current and past employees’ financial contributions are key to the vitality of the Housing and Food Services Endowment. No contribution is too small—even just a few dollars each month can help.
