- EFN Staff | January 09, 2014
This person could be your neighbour, or it could be a volunteer group or local business.
To Earth Day Canada, they are known as "Hometown Heroes" who are working to support a healthier environment, and now you can nominate them to help recognize and celebrate environmental leaders who foster meaningful, long-term community awareness and action.
Nomination deadline for the Hometown Heroes Award Program is March 31, 2014.
"Heroic" candidates can win the Individual Hometown Heroes Award, a $10,000 cash prize to donate to a local environmental group or cause of their choice.
The "Group" Hometown Heroes Award is a $10,000 cash prize to support their work, and the "Small Business" Hometown Heroes Award is a $5,000 cash prize that must be used by the business to make an operational change that results in the business lessening its environmental impact.
