There are achievements in life that are so incredible; they simply cannot be expressed in words. With this in mind, we have created the “Elite” Recognition Award. It takes a special greatness to be considered elite. This sculpture award recognizes those individuals who have went above and beyond to attain elite stature.

The “Elite” Recognition Award is an abstract award design conveying the “best of the best”. The flowing lines of this sculpture award are graceful, powerful and complex. This sculpture award creates an immediate impression to any viewer. Artist Tom Bennett created this sculpture award, which stands 11″ high. The Elite sculpture award is created in bronze.

Hilda Solis, the U.S. Labor Secretary, was presented with a unique Bennett recognition award by the Mexican American Opportunity Foundation (MAOF), one of the largest Latino nonprofit organizations in the United States. Secretary Solis, the highest ranking Latino in the U.S. government, received the Bennett recognition award “Eternal Spirit” as the first-ever American Latina Spirit Award. The Eternal Spirit recognition award, designed by Bennett Awards artist Bob Bennett, was presented to Secretary Solis in recognition of two decades of courageous leadership and historic accomplishments in public service.

This sculpture features a heart in made of bronze and is finished with bronze on the outer edges, while on the inside it is furnished with a rose-colored marble. The design was created by the artist Bob Bennett, and depicts the gracious giving from a person’s heart without question.

For those who are involved in organizations and give to others with love and without thought to do otherwise, they need to be recognized and awarded. When others see that these people are being honored, it might be a way of encouragement to them as well, and what harm could come from that? When others are awarded for doing great and wonderful things, it does not just affect them. It reaches to those who need the inspiration to help and do more with their lives.

With “Heart of Fire,” it should be personalized with a special engraving just for that person. It should include a nice inscription to the person, as well as their name and the date that the award is being given. The recipient of this award will be very proud to have this to show for all of their hard work and their caring acts of kindness. Honor someone you know with a heart of gold with “Hearts of Fire.”
