About Community Builders
The annual Archway Community Builders Awards are designed to acknowledge those who have made an outstanding contribution to Archway Community Services and the community.
New for 2023: Traditionally, Community Builders Awards have recognized those who have demonstrated a long-term commitment to serving the Fraser Valley community. Our new Emerging Community Builder category recognizes those who may be younger, new to the Fraser Valley or have recently started giving back.
For more information, email: CBA@archway.ca
The 2023 event will be held on Nov 2nd, 2023 and nominations are open until September 18th, 2023.

The nomination form is designed to allow the nominator to provide information about the nominee’s exemplary contribution to the community and to Archway.
The selection committee, comprised of Archway staff and board members, chooses the winners at its discretion, based on the information contained in the nomination, as well as information requested from our programs or the nominees themselves.
