CHARLES STEWART MOTT AWARD

      This is the highest award made by ACEA in memory of the person who started community education in Flint, Michigan in the 1930's. Charles Stewart Mott, who once stated "Let us be known by our deeds," left a legacy far greater than the General Motors Corporation he helped found. The Mott Foundation continues to this day to be a national and international leader in promoting democratic ideals, which include community education, grass-roots citizen participation, and global awareness of man and his close relationship to the good earth.

      ACEA will recognize through an engraved plaque, outstanding contributions to the overall purpose of the organization and to the furtherance of community education. There will be one annual award presented to the person, organization, institution or agency inside or outside the field of community education who/which has made the largest contribution to a local program or the statewide program.
