The Tri-City Early Childhood Development Committee wants to acknowledge people who work with children.
The committee is holding its seventh annual Tri-Cities Champions for Young Children Awards and is looking for nominees in six categories:
• individual champion – direct service role;
• individual champion – leadership role;
• individual or group champion – working with children who have special needs;
• group or organization champion;
• business champion;
• and volunteer champion.
Champions could be anyone in the community who promotes the well-being of children under six years of age through a personal or professional relationship and has demonstrated a genuine commitment to providing a better future for our children. Nominations are accepted for individuals who have been nominated in the past but did not win.
An awards banquet will be held on May 12 at the Hard Rock Casino theatre in Coquitlam.
To submit a nomination, email Susan Foster at [email protected] and share in 200 words or less what the nominee has done to improve the life or lives of children under the age of six in the Tri-Cities.
