The Greater Vancouver Chamber will host the annual First Citizen Award this year after 20 years of being sponsored by The Columbian and its partner the Community Foundation for Southwest Washington.

The First Citizen is given annually to a Clark County resident who models the attributes of good citizenship through leadership, action, and civic pride and cultivates inclusive civic engagement practices, according to a statement from the chamber.

The award started in 1939 and goes to those who improve the lives of those in the community through their work, volunteering and philanthropy.

The award will be presented this year during the chamber’s Business & Leadership Awards, which will be announced during a free Facebook and YouTube livestream at 5 p.m. Sept. 22.
