The end of 2009 is coming to a close and Yemen Observer would like to recognize the extraordinary people that have made the year better for the lives of others. Do you know someone that has worked unselfishly all year, creating opportunities for not only friends and family, but for strangers as well? YO encourages you to nominate that special person who you have noticed giving to the community, making Yemen a better place.

To submit a nomination, please write a one-page summary of your nominee’s efforts and the reasons you believe they should be chosen. Please provide specific activities, events, or acts of kindness the person has been involved in. Also, remember to include your name and contact information, as well as the person you are nominating.

Send your nominations to Editor@yobserver.com by December 29th, 2009.
