DO YOU HAVE a relative, a friend or a co-worker who is having a big impact in the Long Beach area? In every neighborhood, there are "unsung heroes" — volunteers and paid professionals who go well beyond their expected duties. Perhaps the person you nominate is active in education, the environment, animal welfare, youth or sports. Or, maybe there is no one "category" for which the person champions. We want to know about people you think should be recognized.

WE WANT TO recognize the unsung heroes and help them to financially continue doing what they are doing.

Nominate an unsung hero by Jan. 19. Approx. $15,000 to be awarded by C.A.T. at Feb. 6 Dinner/Ceremony
