A lifetime achievement award is given to recipients who have dedicated their lives to a worthy cause, or somehow made an impact in society or in the lives of others. Because of its significance, a lifetime achievement award may be signed by the board chair, board members and president of an organization. The award often includes the organization's logo and may be printed on custom certificate paper. As you word the lifetime achievement award, consider why the recipient is receiving the award.
