Celebrating the Accomplishments of America’s Public Servants

The Samuel J. Heyman Service to America Medals (Sammies) pay tribute to America's dedicated federal workforce, highlighting those who have made significant contributions to our country. Honorees are chosen based on their commitment and innovation, as well as the impact of their work on addressing the needs of the nation. Awardees are announced at a fall black-tie gala in Washington, D.C., and receive cash awards between $3,000 and $10,000.

Nominations for the 2012 Samuel J. Heyman Service to America Medals are now closed. We are reviewing the completed nominations and will announce the finalists for this year's awards in early May.

If you have questions or would like to receive next year's call for nominations, please contact Shannon Burke-Kranzberg at sammies@ourpublicservice.org or (202) 464-5382.
