Pioneers, the largest industry-related volunteer organization in the world, celebrated its centennial anniversary this year. To commemorate 100 years of fellowship, loyalty and service, Pioneers International Headquarters developed a special award for our Centennial year. This award signifies how Pioneering has grown over the years and continues to make a difference in communities across North America.
The Centennial Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to one individual from each Pioneers sponsor group for their extraordinary deeds throughout their time as a Pioneer. Nominees must have been active in Pioneering for a minimum of 20 years to be eligible for the award.
The winners of the Centennial Lifetime Achievement were recognized on Saturday, November 5, 2011 at the Centennial Gala in Boston, Massachusetts. Winners were presented a specially designed Lifetime Achievement pin by Jim Schmit (Chairman of the Board, Pioneers) and Carey Wirtzfeld (Pioneers President & CEO) for going beyond the demands of everyday life and dedicate themselves to uplifting and improving the quality of life for others. The winners of the award are:
Fred Hampton, AT&T Pioneers

Rawley Jackson, CenturyLink Pioneers
