Almost Home invites you to join us in recognizing those who make our community stronger and remind us of the limitless possibilities that we all possess. Who do you know who remained focused on their goal for years, never letting the challenges of life slow them down? Who do you know that inspires you to be your best and reach your highest potential? Who do you know with GRIT?
Someone who is committed to succeeding and will do whatever it takes to win. They inspire you with their persistence and resilience. This is someone who amazes you every step of the way with their determination, hard work and achievements. They experienced setbacks, wins, and failures but never stopped. They were committed to succeeding and worked hard to make it happen.
Think about how your nominee has demonstrated GRIT. Consider what obstacles they have overcome and if they have been working towards their goals for years. Have they experienced set-backs, but never let it stop them? Are their accomplishments inspirational? What impact have they made in our community?
Read through our nomination form before you begin your submission. We recommend you look at all the information requested before you begin filling out the form.

Tell us why your nominee has GRIT! Your nomination is the most important part of the process. Be thoughtful and tell us why you think your nominee deserves the GRIT award. You can enter your answers to the essay questions directly on the form, or write them first in a word-processing document and “cut-and-paste” them into each answer field.
