This year, The Valentine will partner with the Community Foundation for a greater Richmond to highlight the work of six honorees and provide an update on the projects and programs making a difference across the region. The six honorees will be recognized at community celebrations March 8, 2022.

“The Community Foundation is grateful to have this opportunity to recognize the changemakers in our region,” said Scott Blackwell, chief community engagement officer with the Community Foundation. “This program shines a light on the best of the best – leaders who collaborate, who consider the needs of our neighborhoods and who place social and economic equity at the forefront of what they do.”

Richmond History Makers is in its 17th year of recognizing local trailblazers. Dominion Energy and Leadership Metro Richmond are returning as the title sponsor and collaborating partner, respectively.

Nominations for the 2022 Richmond History Makers & Community Update will be accepted through Oct. 29. To learn more about the program, view past honorees and to nominate a Richmond history maker, visit RichmondHistoryMakers.com.
