The City of Davis invites community members to submit nominations now through March 29 , 2024 , for the annual Golden Heart Awards . These awards recognize exceptional youth in the Davis community .  
   Nominations can be submitted in two different categories to help acknowledge youth who are “non - traditional achievers”:
   •The Service Award: Recognizing individuals who have given significant service to an expressed need in the community , to their peers , and/or to their schools
   •The Personal Challenge Award: Recognizing individuals who have overcome significant challenges in their lives .  
   In memory of Andrew Mockus , who was tragically killed in 1992 , the City Council adopted the Recreation and Park Commission recommendation to create the Golden Heart Awards as a way to recognize outstanding youth in the community , especially those students who are not typically recognized in other forums . The first award was presented in 1994 .
