2012 Mom on a Mission Parent of the Year Nominations Open

Tweet

Welcome to the first of many blog posts for Mom Bloggers for Social Good.  Since I am a founding member, this is something you will be seeing on here.  This sounds like a really neat idea.  Too bad I can't nominate myself!  (Just kidding, honestly!)

Nominations are now open at http://www.healthychild.org/mission to find

eight extraordinary parents—one of whom will become our 2012 “Mom on a

Mission.” From January through August, Healthy Child will select and honor

one finalist each month; in September and October, the general public will

vote to choose the winner, who will honored with a grand prize at a gala

event in New York City in November.

Celebrating its 20th anniversary year, Healthy Child Healthy World began in

1992 after five-year-old Colette Chuda died of a rare form of

non-hereditary cancer linked to environmental factors. Playing a leadership

role in one of the most important public health and environmental movements

of the 21st century, today Healthy Child Healthy World ignites the movement

that empowers parents to protect children from harmful chemicals. More
