The Health Association of Niagara Inc. is soliciting nominations for the Karen Albond Courage in Caring Award.

This honor is given in memory of longtime HANCI board member Karen Albond, who passed away in 2003 after significant volunteer and professional service to the Niagara community. The award recognizes individuals in the Niagara community who persevere in service to others despite physical or developmental disabilities, or chronic illness.

The Karen Albond Courage in Caring Award was established in 2005 to honor individuals who persevere in service to others despite physical or developmental disabilities, or chronic illness. The award is presented annually at HANCI's Annual Meeting and Luncheon.

Nominees must be 18 or older; live, work and/or volunteer in Niagara County; have a physical or developmental disability or be affected by a chronic illness or health condition; be engaged in volunteer service that improves the quality of life for others. Nominations are solicited and accepted from organizations and individuals in the Niagara community. A panel of HANCI staff and volunteers, including representatives of the Albond family, selects the winner.

Nomination forms are also available by emailing [email protected].
