Catholic Digest Seeks Heroes
Does someone you know deserve recognition?


regina benjaminOnce again, Catholic Digest is asking organizations, schools, mission groups, parishes, and individuals across the country to send us their nominees to be featured in our very special "Catholic Heroes" issue in 2010.

Catholic heroes come in many forms. They may be medical researchers, overseas volunteers, lay missionaries, or environmental activists. They may be corporate leaders who demonstrate their faith in the values-oriented way they lead their companies. They may be reporters bringing to light issues of social justice in their communities, or artists, athletes, and entertainers who use their fame to send out Cucciaimportant messages or support the less fortunate. They may be educational professionals whose unique visions have forever changed the lives of their students, schools, and communities. They may be scientists looking for ways to better care for the Earth and its people. They may be founders or leaders of local, regional, and national organizations that benefit the poor, sick, elderly, persecuted, or disabled. These are just a few examples. We're counting on you to show us the breadth and depth of Catholic heroism alive among laypeople in America today!

WChaireze will be accepting your nominations over the next several weeks so please send a quick note with your nominee's name, contact information, and why you think he or she should be honored (include press clippings or Web links, if possible) to Traci Neal via e-mail or the mailing address below. We will get back in touch with you once we finalize our list. If we choose your nominee, your organization and its connection to this hero will be mentioned. I look forward to hearing from you.
