Star-Bulletin seeking 10 Who Made a Difference

The Honolulu Star-Bulletin invites you to nominate people who have made a difference in Hawaii this year.

They can be people who fought controversial battles in public or worked behind the scenes in any field -- community service, education, politics, law, labor, medicine, science, business, sports, entertainment, the arts. All that matters is that they had a devotion to their cause and made a profound impact on Hawaii in 2006.

To make a nomination, explain why you think the person should be honored. Deadline for nominations is Dec. 13.

Honorees will be selected by Star-Bulletin editors. We will publish the results starting Dec. 22.

Please include the following information: your name, your nomination and your work and home telephone numbers.

E-mail your nominations to difference@starbulletin.com, or you can mail your nominations to 10 Who Made a Difference, Honolulu Star-Bulletin, 7 Waterfront Plaza, Suite 210, 500 Ala Moana Blvd., Honolulu, HI 96813.
