The Awards Committee is seeking nominations for the Ann P. Longshore Distinguished Service Award and the Oliver J. Booker Scholarship Award.
The Ann P. Longshore Distinguished Service Award recognizes an outstanding Chapter member for his/her efforts. Nominations for candidates are based upon the member’s service to the Chapter and are submitted to the Awards Committee with the recipient approved by the Board. The recipient must be a member of the Georgia Chapter (with current officers and board members excluded) and can only receive the award once every five years.
The O.J. Booker Scholarship Award was established as a continuing memorial to Mr. Booker who passed away in 1987. Colleagues remember him as a highly effective manager who always encouraged employees to further their education and enrich themselves. Nominees for the scholarship are selected from among students of the highest academic standing in the financial fields who expect to enter the healthcare financial management industry. The $1,500 award is designed to help a member of HFMA or a member of their immediate family in their educational endeavors. Nominations can be made by any member and the recipient does not have to be a member of the chapter. Nominations should include: name, address, phone number, place of employment, HFMA member or relationship, degree/program pursuing, college/school, and reasons for nomination.
The Ann P. Longshore Distinguished Service Award and the O.J. Booker Scholarship Award will be presented to the 1998 Recipients during the Spring meeting at Callaway. Please submit your nomination by March 27, 1998 in order to be considered.
