West Virginians helping West Virginians has never been more important. During a year of uncertainty, an unprecedented stay-at-home order, business closings, layoffs, remote work and fear, citizens of the Mountain State have proven once again that in the face of adversity, they take care of their own.
As West Virginia, along with the rest of the country, recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, recognizing those who prioritize the needs of others is a privilege, and West Virginia Executive is proud to present the Sharp Shooters Class of 2020.
Much like coal, oil and natural gas fuel our nation’s most important industries, the 2020 Sharp Shooters are fueling statewide revitalization and pushing for a promising, more successful future. These vital natural resources are the backbone of the state’s most important endeavors, including business, finance, health care, economic development and infrastructure, and each one of them has an active track record of commitment, service and philanthropy.
Sharp Shooters are West Virginians over the age of 43 who stand out in their respective fields and represent what is great about the past and exciting about the future of the Mountain State. Honorees must have lived in the state and been in their West Virginia-based position for at least five years and actively participate in community service and philanthropic endeavors, as well as efforts to move the Mountain State forward.
Welcome, Sharp Shooters Class of 2020.
If you know someone who is making an impact in their career and community, nominate them for next year’s class. Nominations are accepted year-round and can be submitted at www.wvexecutive.com/sharp-shooter-nomination-form.
Meet the 2020 class of Sharp Shooters.
