The Stan Black Award

The Stan Black Award is named for one of the founders of The Community Foundation. Stan is retired now, but continues to be an active participant in a number of causes, both in the Boulder area and overseas. We present this award annually with the sponsorship of the law firm of Hutchinson, Black & Cook and the additional support individual donors. The award is intended to honor an individual who, like Stan Black, has given a lifetime of "time, treasure and talent" to the community.

The 2010 Stan Black Award honoree is:
Joanne Arnold, Ph.D.

Joanne Arnold

Dr. Joanne Arnold is an icon who has over decades contributed time, treasure and talent to the Boulder County community and beyond.  Dr. Arnold has shared herself with many people, organizations, and causes and often in the face of unpopular stands.  She has made exceptional contributions in education, journalism, and civil rights for women, gays and lesbians.  Her breadth in sharing herself is indeed part of how she is such a treasure to so many people in this county.”
