- In your cover letter provide your name as nominator, your position, address, telephone number, fax number and e-mail address (if applicable). Include the same information for the person or group whom you are nominating. Nominators must sign the cover letter. Self-nominations will not be considered.
- Enclose a two-page (8 1/2 X 11), double-spaced, typewritten (10 to 12 pitch standard font: 1" margins) summary of your nominee's accomplishment. Cite specific action and results with a time frame given. Do not identify the nominee or the nominator in this summary. Information as to location, political affiliation, race, religion, etc., must be omitted in order that these may be judged without concern of prejudice. Refer to "nominee", "city", or "state". Do not use letterhead for this summary. The initial stage of judging is based on this summary alone.
- All nominations MUST include evidence of your nominee's accomplishments such as commendations, endorsements, newspaper/magazine articles, TV clips, or other. These materials are necessary for verification and validation purposes. All submitted materials become the property of the Foundation. An elaborate presentation is not necessary. Substance counts.
