WoodmenLife, a champion of family, community and country since 1890, is offering donations totaling $10,000 to fund worthwhile community nonprofit organizations across the country.
The Community Champions contest is seeking nominations for deserving U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations in good standing.
One grand prize winner will be selected to receive a $6,000 donation from WoodmenLife.
Four finalists will each receive $1,000 donations.
The public is urged to nominate community champions via the online submission portal, which can be found through WoodmenLife's Facebook and Instagram profiles through Wednesday, July 22.
WoodmenLife encourages advocates to include photos or videos to highlight how their proposed nonprofit organization has impacted their community and why the organization deserves the donation.
