"Our heroes are being selected on their personal stories, their passion and their work. We don't want to see those scripted bios. We don't need that cut and paste from a website. What we want is for nominees and nominators to tell us in their own words what makes that hero tick, who benefits? And tell us a little bit about their story."

Join me as Pam shares the heart and soul of the Local Heroes awards and recognition program, while diving into a funding provider's mind. You will get insights into how a funding provider thinks when creating and then assessing a funding program.

This episode is full of stories of Local Heroes, delves into Westfield's Community Engagement Strategy, and if you follow the tips Pam shares, you will be in with a good chance of being selected as a 2021 Local Heroes finalist.
