A Ludington organization is looking for local heroes, and they're encouraging anyone who might know such a hero to submit a nomination. The "Unsung Heroes" competition is being held by Hospice of Michigan as part of the 2009 Mask Project. The project is a fundraiser for the organization, and helps to offset costs for medical patients whose health care isn't fully covered by insurance. Any area resident who is committed to helping others but who might not be recognized for their contributions to the local community is eligible to be nominated as an "Unsung Hero;" nominations must be submitted by February 20. Ten winners will be chosen to design and decorate ceramic masks to be auctioned in April as part of Hospice of Michigan's fundraiser; if you're interested in nominating someone for the award you can log on to the group's web site, www.HOM.org.  « Less
