The Franklin Times is recognising the many wonderful people in our community who go out of their way to help others with our regular Community Hero award.
If you know someone who’s doing amazing things in our community, please email 80 to 100 words describing why they deserve this recognition, highlighting specific actions they’ve taken to benefit our community, with your and their contact details and a high-resolution photo of them, if possible, to editor@franklintimes.co.nz.
Be sure to include details about what they’ve been doing, the impact they’ve made, and how long they’ve been involved in these efforts.
The award is sponsored by Little Ed Pukekohe. Recipients will receive a $50 Little Ed voucher and will be featured in our newspaper and on our website. We award one Community Hero in each edition of our newspaper, published twice a month.
The second January recipient is Alanna Howard, nominated by Gabrielle Griffiths, who writes:
“Alanna works tirelessly for victim support and is always there supporting people during the hardest times in their lives.
“She deserves some recognition for her contribution to the people of Franklin over many years in victim support. It is a hard job carrying other people’s pain when they are victims of a crime or have lost a family member.
Alanna was also nominated by Kiana Powell, who writes: “She is forever working tirelessly behind the scenes at Victim Support. Even when she’s not on duty, she will answer texts or calls if needed.
“Alanna is an all-round amazing person who deserves a little spoiling.”
