Marcal Small Steps recently held the Small Steps for Big Change Environmental Awards. Between January 1 and February 25th, fans were able to submit an essay on why their green hero was deserving of the award. After the nomination phase, a panel of judges went to work choosing one grand prize winner and 4 runners up.
What's so great about these awards is that the chosen heroes win donations to environmental charities, made in their name. The grand prize was for a whopping $5,000! First place - $2,500, Second - $1,500 and Third and Fourth place both received $500 to the charity of their choice.
The winners were announced Monday and if you take a look, you just might see someone familiar!
I am so thrilled and I'd like to extend a huge congratulations to all of the winners. Their works are inspiring and I am honored to be in their company. Thank you also to Marcal for these great awards and the good works that their donations will facilitate!
I chose Healthy Child Healthy World as my charity. They are a fantastic organization that works to create safe and healthy environments for children. As they say, "We ignite the movement that empowers parents to protect children from harmful chemicals."
You can learn more about them by visiting their site, and if you haven't seen it yet, check out their Wake Up Story! It is truly inspiring.
