Man I'm so arrogant I nominated myself for Outstanding individual. I won't get it because to give it to me they would have to acknowledge that their whole organization is a failure. Talk about biting the hand that might feed you.

Dear dean,
Over the past two years, we have given 13 awards to individuals
and organizations across the country for carrying out stroke awareness
activities in their communities. The 2013 Raising
Awareness in Stroke Excellence (RAISE) Awards nomination period is well
under way—you only have 10 days left
to nominate someone you know (or yourself) for any efforts in stroke awareness in your community!
No effort to raise stroke awareness is too small. When all efforts
are put together, it is then that we begin to see the biggest impact. Kathy
Howard, a 2012 RAISE Award winner
from St. Louis, Mo., felt her efforts were not big enough, but in reality, she
was very deserving of an award:
”It was the most unexpected and
appreciated honor I have ever received. I felt that I had not done enough yet
to be so deserving while at the same time it has been my motivation to give
survivors a voice.”
Nominations are being accepted in the
following categories:
- Most Creative
- Most Impactful
- Outstanding Individual
- Outstanding Group
- Most Impactful Community Fundraising
Effort
- Outstanding Support Group
Read descriptions of the categories and submit your nominations.
Don’t delay—nominate someone today.
Nominations close on Aug. 31!
Warmest regards, 
Anna Taylor
Manager, Community Education and Outreach
P.S. This year, the program has a new format and in October, you will be able
to help choose one of the winners!
