Nominate someone for the 2009 Pride of Australia™ medal today
If you would like to nominate someone for next year’s Pride of Australia™ medal, you can by filling out the simple online Nomination Form.The prideofaustralia™ medal honours everyday Australians who do extraordinary things in our communities. They are our unsung heroes whose contribution to the Australian way of life is not widely known or recognised by the general public. Through their achievements, these remarkable Australians inspire us to help make Australia a better place to live.
These people are not high-profile Australians. They might be a friend, workmate, neighbour, your child’s teacher, the local police officer or fire fighter or simply someone who has made your community a better place to live – you can even nominate yourself.
There are 10 categories in the prideofaustralia™ award program: Bravery, Courage, Community Spirit, Young Aussie, Mateship, Fair Go, Environment, Peace, True Blue and Role Model.
A unique prideofaustralia™ medal will be awarded to the winner of each category at a special ceremony event held in NSW (&ACT), VIC, SA, QLD, WA, TAS and NT in October. See Key Dates for details.
The prideofaustralia™ has grown from strength to strength and has uncovered heart-warming, courageous stories about everyday people whose extraordinary actions make you proud to be Australian.
Help us recognise and celebrate these great Australians and nominate someone today. Nominations can now be accepted for 2009
