In the interest of keeping things transparent, we’re sharing the list of current 2016 Courage Award nominees submitted by Crosscut’s readers. We asked you to tell us about the people in your community who are bravely standing up for what’s right, and pushing us all to think harder about how we can build a better future for our region, and you did. Have someone else to add to the list? There is still time. You have until 11:59 p.m. tonight to nominate a bold individual in your community.
Winners will be honored at the fourth annual Courage Awards breakfast on October 14 at The Westin Seattle. Tickets (and tables!) are still available. We hope you’ll join us.
