Senior Illinoisans Hall of Fame

The Senior Illinoisans Hall of Fame was initiated by the General Assembly in 1994 to commemorate the achievements and contributions of citizens age 65 or older. Inductees are selected through a statewide nomination and judging process. The program targets candidates in the areas of community service, education, the work force and graphic/performance arts. The winners will be inducted into the 2008 Illinois Senior Hall of Fame during a special ceremony in the fall. The event receives corporate sponsorship from Walgreen's.
