Community Foundation seeks nominees for Unsung Heroes


The Community Foundation of the Florida Keys is accepting nominations for its 22nd annual Unsung Heroes Celebration, recognizing the efforts of volunteers.

Every 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit or faith-based organization in the Florida Keys is invited to nominate a volunteer to be honored. The online nomination form is available at www.cffk.org/unsung and the deadline is Dec. 15.

Honorees will be recognized at a celebration at noon Friday, Feb. 4, at the Key West Marriott Beachside. Each participating nonprofit will receive two complimentary tickets to the event.

“The Keys offer us a beautiful place to live, but our community volunteers are the living heart within that beauty,” said Community Foundation board chair Susanne Woods. “It is an honor to honor them.”

More than 1,400 volunteers have been recognized since the event was started 22 years ago. For more information, call 305- 292-1502 or visit www.cffk.org/unsung. ¦
