ACCA Announces Community Leadership Award in Memory of Past Chair Skip Snyder

The Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) is seeking nominations for the ACCA Community Leadership Award, formerly known as the Skip Snyder Humanitarian Award, sponsored by Jackson Systems. The award was established in memory of past ACCA National Chair Skip Snyder, who passed away in 2013. Skip Snyder was an iconic figure in the HVACR industry due to his many benevolent efforts and actions.

The ACCA Community Leadership Award recognizes an ACCA member who has made extraordinary contributions to the betterment of society and their community. Nominees and recipients of this award should exemplify the following characteristics: Service-oriented, Knowledgeable and Kindness, Integrity, and Partnership (SKIP). It is a tribute to the memory of Skip's remarkable character and his philosophy of life – helping, caring, and sharing with others.

“Jackson Systems is honored to be involved in such a respected award,” said Tom Jackson, CEO of Jackson Systems, LLC. “I had the opportunity to meet Skip several times, and his compassion was inspiring to all. Jackson Systems is committed to carrying on Skip Snyder’s mission of helping others.”

ACCA is accepting nominations until November 12, 2021. Nominations can be submitted here. The winner will be awarded at ACCA's 2022 Conference & Expo, March 28-30 in St. Louis, MO.
