2015 ARRL International Humanitarian Award

Nominations are open for the 2015 ARRL International Humanitarian
Award http://www.arrl.org/international-humanitarian-award.
The award is conferred upon an amateur or amateurs who demonstrate
devotion to human welfare, peace and international understanding
through Amateur Radio. The League established the annual prize to
recognize Amateur Radio operators who have used ham radio to provide
extraordinary service to others in times of crisis or disaster.

A committee appointed by the League's President recommends the award
recipient(s) to the ARRL Board, which makes the final decision.
The committee is now accepting nominations from Amateur Radio,
governmental or other organizations that have benefited from
extraordinary service rendered by an Amateur Radio operator or group.

Amateur Radio is one of the few telecommunication services that allow
people throughout the world from all walks of life to meet and talk
with each other, thereby spreading goodwill across political
boundaries.
The ARRL International Humanitarian Award recognizes Amateur Radio's
unique role in international communication and the assistance amateurs
regularly provide to people in need.

Nominations should include a summary of the nominee's actions that
qualify the individual (or individuals) for this award, plus verifying
statements from at least two people having first-hand knowledge of the
events warranting the nomination. These statements may be from an
official of a group (for example, the American Red Cross, The
Salvation Army, a local or state emergency management official) that
benefited from the nominee's particular Amateur Radio contribution.
Nominations should include the names and addresses of all references.

All nominations and supporting materials for the 2015 ARRL
International Humanitarian Award must be submitted in writing in
English to
ARRL International Humanitarian Award, 225 Main St, Newington, CT
06111 USA. Nomination submissions are due by December 31, 2015.
In the event that no nominations are received, the committee itself
may determine a recipient or decide to make no award.

The winner of the ARRL International Humanitarian Award receives an
engraved plaque and a profile in QST and other ARRL venues.
