Last chance to nominate your favorite non-profit

Readers of the ShorelineAreaNews have until Tuesday August 31 to nominate their favorite 501(c)3 non-profit for a $2,500 award from State Senator Darlene Fairley.

The money is from her campaign fund, which she no longer needs as she is retiring from the state senate at the end of her term in January 2011. Legally, she can do any of three things with the money: give it back to the donors, give it to a political organization, or give it to a 501(c)3.

Name your favorite non-profit organization and explain why you think they should have the money. The organization can be anywhere in the world and it is all right if you are affiliated with the organization.

Senator Fairley wants to be very clear that this is completely subjective. She is the only judge and will be making her decision based on your comments when you nominate the organization.

This is not a poll or a vote and her decision will not be based on how many times an organization is nominated.

Nominations will be accepted until the end of August. Send your email to Tips@ShorelineAreaNews.com, sign your name, city of residence, and contact information.
