Call for Nominations: Do You Know Any Humane Heroes?
A 12-year-old girl from Oregon launches a website that now helps provide food for dogs and cats at eight shelters across the country. A tabby serves as a guide cat for a blind and deaf dog, helping her canine companion accomplish daily tasks. These are just two of the ASPCA Humane Award winners of 2008, and now we’re once again inviting you to nominate the most special people you know who have worked on behalf of animals and the animals who have performed heroic acts during the past year.
Nominations are being accepted now through Wednesday, July 15. You’ll be asked to provide your contact information, your nominee’s contact information and a short statement (400 words or less) telling us why your hero deserves to be honored.
Winners will be invited to New York City this October for our Humane Awards Luncheon at the newly renovated Pierre Hotel.
