We all know people who show up, again and again, to do the hard work of listening and connecting us. They often don’t have big titles or get government grants. They do what they do because they care about weaving together their communities.
Some help kids or the elderly. Some make sure everyone has a holiday meal. And many are not part of a nonprofit organization or business.
This year, as part of the Weaver Awards (WeaverAwards.org), a group of Baltimoreans will choose twenty community weavers to receive $5,000 each in July. To be considered, you need to:
- Be 18 or older
- Live and serve in Baltimore City
- Have a project that helps connect neighbors or the city
- Work on a small scale or in a small organization
- Fill out a short application and get a neighbor recommendation
Have questions about the awards, whether you are eligible, or how to fill out the application? Join us for a virtual information session on Thursday, June 2 from 5 - 6pm Eastern Time.
