The Acacia Award recognizes an individual for their years of service, support and fidelity to the Black Catholic Community. The Acacia Award is taken from the Acacia Tree which is native to Africa.

It is known for providing protection, food and shelter in many African societies because of its resilience to the environmental condition.
