The Sierra Club has two awards programs: A volunteer awards program is run by the Honors and Awards Committee. This program recognizes people within the Club and outside the Club who have made outstanding contributions to protecting the environment. Awards are given in a variety of areas, including conservation, outings, administration, photography, journalism, and working with youth. Brief descriptions of each award are available here. The deadline for volunteer award nominations each year is June 1. Awards are presented during the Club's annual September meeting in San Francisco.

Nominations for staff awards are accepted from Sierra Club staff members and volunteers, but not from the general public, and the staff awards are presented in May. You may download a list of staff award descriptions here, and see current staff winners here.
