Now Accepting Nominations for the

Making Democracy Work Award

Making Democracy Work Nomination Form

Dedication, commitment and a passion to improving our community represent values that the League stands for. LWVPPR would like to recognize women who share these values with the third annual Making Democracy Work Award. Nominations are now being accepted for the award, given to an inspirational leader who is engaged in outstanding work to make our community a strong, safe, and vibrant place to live.

Nominations are open to any woman age 40 and older who is, or has been, part of the work force and has contributed to our community in a meaningful way. Nominees may apply themselves, or they may be nominated by a friend or colleague. Members of the League of Women Voters of the Pikes Peak Region (LWVPPR) are not eligible to receive this award.

Five finalists will be honored, and the winner announced, at a reception on Thursday, February 19, 2009.

Please Note: Deadline for nominations is December 1, 2008.

The League welcomes The Colorado Springs Independent as a cosponsor of the 2009 Award.
