Community Service Award

OBJECTIVE: The Community Service Award is designed to recognize Delta Epsilon Chi chapters for civic activities performed in their community or “state.” The activity may include any community service or civic activity the chapter completes during the current school year.

DESCRIPTION:

1. Chapters must complete the reporting form and submit it directly to DECA Inc. by March 1 of the current membership year. Submit a separate reporting form for each activity completed.
2. Each chapter submitting a report will be recognized and will receive a certificate during the International Career Development Conference.
3. All members of participating chapters that attend ICDC will receive a ribbon as further recognition of their chapter accomplishments.
4. Along with the individual activity forms, please indicate the total number of Community Service Award participants from your chapter that will attend the International Career Development Conference. For example: If your entire chapter completed three activities, include a brief note clearly indicating the total number of participants from your chapter that will attend ICDC.
