We invite you to join Community Shares of Wisconsin for our Annual Community Change-Maker Awards Event on Thursday, September 19, 2019 at Union South!
Each year Community Shares of Wisconsin honors 3 Change-Makers and 24 Backyard Heroes who work to advance social and environmental justice in our communities throughout Wisconsin. These local award winners are nominated by our member nonprofits, organizations on the front lines of issues important to you – from housing rights to safe, clean drinking water.
We will be celebrating our 2019 Community Change-Maker Award winners!
This year’s Change-Makers are:
- Talib Akbar, Nominated by MOSES-WISDOM of Madison – Winner of the Linda Sundberg Civil Rights Defender Award
- Ginger Baier, Nominated by OutReach – Winner of the Liesl Blockstein Community Leadership Award
- Ruth Schmidt, nominated by Wisconsin Early Childhood Association – Winner of the Sally Sunde Family Advocate Award
Community Shares of Wisconsin will also honor 24 exceptional Backyard Hero Award Winners for their volunteer work at Community Shares’ member nonprofits. Learn more about them here: http://communityshares.com/whats-new/backyard-heroes/
