Indspire Awards Nomination Deadline Fast Approaching!


The Indspire Awards nomination deadline is approaching quickly!
Honour someone outstanding - Nominate them now for the 20th Annual Indspire Awards.
The nomination deadline for the 20th Annual Indspire Awards is fast approaching. Nominations are being accepted until 5:00 p.m. EST/PST Friday June 29, 2012.
2013 will mark the 20th anniversary of celebrating excellence in the Indigenous community and the limitless potential that First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people represent. These Awards recognize the highest level of achievement and provide terrific role models for Indigenous youth.
Past recipients include Waneek Horn-Miller, Norval Morrisseau, Jean La Rose, Audrey Poitras and Adam Beach. With categories for ten career professionals, three outstanding youth, and one lifetime achiever there is opportunity for various Indigenous achievers. Recipients are selected by a national jury for their many accomplishments and honoured at a nationally televised gala ceremony.
“By honouring these achievements we continue to inspire many others waiting to demonstrate their potential” says Roberta Jamieson, President and CEO of Indspire. That potential is in a family member, a friend, a colleague, or a community member. Share their stories for all of Canada to hear. Help us celebrate these extraordinary individuals by submitting a nomination in one of the following categories:
