Should you use proudly presents or proudly presenting?

We present an award; he presents it. The first is plural, the second is singular. Who is doing the presenting? Standard US English differs from British English in useage; the British will use nouns like government, or academy for example, as plural because they consist of a multitude of individuals. They might say the academy proudly present, or the government have reason for caution. In the US, it would most often be the academy proudly presents, or the government has reason for caution. So it depends both on number and the English that you want to apply.

Should you use proudly present or proudly presents?

The correct phrase would be "proudly presents." This is because "presents" is the third-person singular form of the verb, which agrees with the singular subject "it" or "he/she/it." In this case, "proudly" is an adverb modifying the verb "presents." Therefore, the correct usage is "proudly presents" when referring to a singular entity or subject.
