A lifetime of achievement with Foresters

The Foresters Lifetime Achievement Award (LAA) is the highest and most prestigious award a member can achieve within Foresters.

Every four years, we proudly celebrate members who exemplify our purpose and demonstrate exceptional dedication and leadership. The LAA is awarded to members who have distinguished themselves with their genuine character and steadfast commitment to leadership and community service — all while helping bring the Foresters purpose to life in local communities.

Any active member is eligible and LAA recipients are nominated by their local Branch Council with an application, an affirmation of support and a written narrative to explain why this nominee should be considered for the award.

Winners are selected by the Fraternal Committee of the Foresters Board of Directors and honored at the International Assembly, which occurs every four years.

We are so proud to showcase this year’s recipients, who have dedicated their time and energy to community-building, fundraising, mentorship, outreach programs and helping others through their Foresters membership.
