Make a nomination for a real #LifeSavingHero!
Nominate someone now for being a real #LifeSavingHero! We’re introducing this new category in addition to the #hero category so you can nominate, firefighters, police officers, Coast Guard members and more individuals actually saving lives.
The social web has allowed real, life-saving heroes, who may have otherwise gone unnoticed to become recognized for the life-saving work they’re doing. Twitter and social media help give an inside look at how heroes handle the dangerous conditions and situations they face on a daily basis.
The #LifeSavingHero Shorty Award, presented in partnership with The Weather Channel’s Coast Guard Alaska, a show about an elite team that risks their lives in search and rescue missions in harsh weather conditions, will be awarded to a real life hero using Twitter and the social web to save lives. Coast Guard members, firefighters, police officers, or anyone else who’s helped to save a life using social media are eligible. If a celebrity is clearly using social media to actively save lives through supporting a major cause they will be eligible. They must have an indication of this in their bio, tweets and the nominations they receive.
