People whose extraordinary and selfless efforts have made a significant impact combating social injustice or improving community life should be recognized and celebrated. If you know such a person, take the lead in nominating them for the Thomas C. Wales Award for Passionate Citizenship.

To get an idea of the sort of people we have recognized, see our list of past honorees.

Our 2009 Citizenship award honorees have already been announced. Although formal nominations for 2010 are not yet being accepted, we always like to hear your ideas for people whose work we should be aware of.

Detailed information about the 2010 nomination process will be announced in the summer of 2010.
