Are you or someone that you know a real City Problem Solver?

Do you know of an organization that we should know about?

We need to say thank you to people and organizations for when they have done something good, and at the same time, that lets others see that good deeds do get recognized, something that needs to happen more often.

We are always on the lookout for acts of greatness that need to be recognized and rewarded, so if you know someone who you think has done something great in this city please let us know. It can be a local resident, business owner, city official or employee, or a school student or teacher that is doing something great in the city to help make it be better in some extra special way.

If you have a person in mind, please let us know here.
