The Coalition for the Homeless of Nassau County is accepting nominations

for the *Third Annual Ele Colborn Volunteer of the Year Award*.

Ele was a long-time community activist and the founder of the Coalition. We

think it is fitting to honor her memory with a yearly award to an

outstanding Coalition volunteer who has worked during the year to further

the goals of the organization.

*Guidelines for Nominations for the 2014 Ele Colborn Volunteer of the Year

Award*

annual homeless count, The Day Drop-in Center, or Gracie's kitchen, for

- Made a significant contribution to addressing the needs of people

experiencing homelessness and those at risk of experiencing homelessness in

the county

*Members of the Board of Directors of the Coalition are not eligible for

this award.*

Please submit no more than 100 words explaining why you think the person

you are nominating is worthy of this award. *The deadline for nominations
