Time is running out to nominate someone who inspires you for a Positively Milwaukee Award. TODAY’S TMJ4 is accepting nominations for the annual awards show through July 31, 2019.  Winners in each category will win $1000 for their charity of choice and will be eligible for an additional $4000 from TODAY’S TMJ4 and the Scripps Howard Foundation.  All winners will be featured in a televised special this fall.  You can nominate people at tmj4.com/awards in one or more of the following categories:

Inspiring Teacher
Inspiring Youth
Inspiring Senior
Community Hero (first responder)
Unsung Hero
Inspiring Veteran
Legacy Award (for someone who has passed away)

Carole Meekins, the host of the special, says these awards highlight what’s right in the world.  “We’re inundated with negative information these days.  To be able to shine a light on local people who do such good… well, that’s truly an honor and a privilege,” Meekins said.

For official rules and category descriptions, visit tmj4.com/awards

    I nominate Laura Marsh, formerly homeless in Milwaukee.
    Laura has ceased drug and alcohol addiction, reunited with her adult daughter, authored several books based on her journals while homeless, helped countless numbers of individuals who experience homelessness (living with her and her husband), cared for her husband’s medical needs for years, speaker on stories and reality of homelessness, survivor of physical and verbal abuse.l
