The deadline for submissions is October 27.

“Westchester County is home to so many dedicated volunteers whose work makes a lasting impact on the lives of our children,” Astorino said. “We look forward to announcing this year’s winner, who will no doubt highlight Rosemarie Siragusa’s legacy of caring for our county’s youth.”

The selected recipient will be honored during a meeting of the Westchester County Youth Board on November 15 in White Plains.
