Charlie Nusbaum, one of this year’s recipients, is the fifth member of the Nusbaum family to receive the prestigious award.
Nusbaum is a past president of Ohef Sholom Temple and is the current vice chair of Tidewater Jewish Foundation, among his varied and many volunteer commitments for the Jewish and greater Tidewater communities.

In addition to Nusbaum, this year’s recipients include: Nneka Chiazor, Annette Dunbar, Scott D. Miller, and Keith H. Newby. The Distinguished Merit Award is being presented to the Hindu Temple of Hampton Roads.
This year’s VCIC Tidewater Humanitarian Awards Dinner will include an in-person reception and watch party with limited attendance, as well as a virtual presentation option.
