INSPIRATIONAL people in the Port Macquarie-Hastings region are the target of next year’s cover photo for the White Pages.
Sensis is on the hunt for a community-minded person to be the face of the 2014/15 phone directory, which has the theme Inspiring Others to Achieve.
Port Macquarie, Wauchope, Cambden Haven, Kempsey, Nambucca and Lord Howe Island residents are eligible to be nominated.
“Sensis wants locals to nominate people in their community who dedicate their lives to helping other people achieve their goals,” White Pages product manager Sarah Simpson said.
“They might be fantastic teachers, dedicated sports coaches, inspiring disability advocates, or people who break down barriers.
“They’re probably very humble people, but they deserve recognition for their efforts in creating an environment that encourages and rewards hard work and determination.
“Their selfless efforts are the reason behind the success of others – no matter how big or small that success might be.”
People can nominate their local hero via www.whitepagescommunity.com.au or by emailing coversprogram@sensis.com.au
You can also fax your nominations to (03) 8416 6779 or by sending a letter to Inspiring Others to Achieve, Locked Bag 6005, Richmond, VIC, 3121.
