Our Candidate Selection Process

• We gather nominations by encouraging people to share detailed stories of the nominees’ acts of kindness. These nominations can come through various channels, such as personal recommendations, social media posts, brief media mentions, social clubs, churches, or other community networks. The individuals submitting nominations will serve as the primary source of information, providing insights into the nominee’s background and how their actions align with our criteria .
• The Candidate Selection and Events Coordination Focus Group meets regularly to evaluate nominations based on the criteria we have developed, and may ask for further information if needed.
• We will craft a compelling narrative highlighting the candidate’s journey and achievements .
• Our Focus Group will then coordinate and finalize all the specifics for the Recognition event.
