Recognizing Unsung Minnesota Heroes That Make Big Impacts

It’s likely you’re heard businesses brag about their employees saying that their people make the difference. Meaning that if you come there, they will treat you better than anyone else.

There is some truth to that statement people can make the difference. If you feel like they really want to help you and have your best interest at heart, you are more inclined to trust that person.  

Those Who Make The Community A Priority!

There are a lot of people who are going above and beyond supporting causes in their area, not just to help their business grow, but these caring, giving people who do this because it needs to be done and because they want to do it. 

Volunteers are vital to the success and growth of any area, because without them, we would all be looking out for ourselves and that probably wouldn’t make for a very functioning society.  

If you know someone who is a giving person, always looking out for a way they can make a difference, you need to nominate them for the AARP Minnesota Andrus Award for Community Service. 

The Andrus Award is named for Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus who founded AARP in 1959 at the age of 73.  

This particular award is for Minnesotans who are over the age of 50 who are making a difference in their community.  

You can nominate someone through July 15th at this link. There are some guidelines that each nominee must meet; you can also find those on the link above as well.
