It gives us great pleasure in this issue of Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (NVSQ) to do several things: first, to express our appreciation to all the reviewers for the journal, something we do all year long as we request and receive reviews, and want to reiterate at the end of another successful year for NVSQ. These scholars help us keep NVSQ the top-ranked journal in the field. We are pleased to list all the peer reviewers by name below and again extend our heartfelt gratitude. Each year, we choose to recognize one reviewer to whom we present the Outstanding Reviewer Award. This year, we are pleased to present the Award to Professor Woods Bowman. Congratulations, Woods, and a big thank you! We also take this opportunity to extend our continued appreciation to the members of the Board of the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations and Voluntary Action (ARNOVA) and Executive Director, Shariq Siddiqui, for their ongoing confidence and support. We remain very grateful to Micheal L. Shier, managing editor of NVSQ and a recent PhD graduate of the School of Social Policy and Practice, University of Pennsylvania, for his excellent work. Congratulations to Micheal on the PhD and his new position as assistant professor at the Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work at the University of Toronto, Canada. We also thank Dr. Joyce Gleason for her important work as our editorial consultant. Special thanks to Leah Fargotstein, Editor—Social Science Journals—and Ayan Dhar, the Production Editor at SAGE, for their continued support of our efforts as Editors-in-Chief of the journal. We thank our editorial assistants Calvin Jennings and Kate Samuelson at the University of Pennsylvania and Allison R. Russell, Anna M. Nunn, and Vanessa J. Lacer at the University of North Carolina Wilmington for their invaluable service to NVSQ. In our 4.5 years as Editors-in-Chief, we are mindful of the hard work and dedication of all our authors, and all our supporters mentioned and left unmentioned; your dedication has made NVSQ grow in stature as seen from the Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Reports (JCR) captured in the following figures.
