NOMINATIONS

Nominations Must Include

  1. Cover letter: In the cover letter, provide your name as nominator, your position, address, cell number, and e-mail address. Include the same information for the person or group whom you are nominating. Nominators must sign the cover letter. Self-nominations will not be considered.
  2. Summary: Enclose a two-page (8 1/2 X 11), double-spaced, 1″ margins, typewritten (10 to 12 standard font) summary of your nominee’s accomplishment. Cite specific action and results with a time frame given. Do not identify the nominee or the nominator in this summary. Information as to location, political affiliation, gender, race, religion, etc., must be omitted in order that these nominees may be judged without concern of prejudice. Refer to “nominee”, “city”, or “state”. Do not use letterhead, page#, charts, graphs, annotation, footnotes in this summary. The initial stage of selection is based on this blind summary alone.
  3. Evidence: All nominations MUST include evidence of your nominee’s accomplishments such as commendations, endorsements, newspaper/magazine articles, TV/radio clips, or other links. These materials are necessary for verification and validation purposes. All submitted materials become the property of the Foundation. An elaborate presentation is not necessary. Substance counts. If nomination procedures are not followed exactly, the nomination will be rejected.
