SAN BERNARDINO >> The League of Women Voters of San Bernardino invites community members to nominate deserving people to be recognized at their Annual Citizens of Achievement award reception. LWVSB encompasses all communities from Fontana to Yucaipa and from the San Bernardino/Riverside County line to the mountain areas. A successful nominee is an individual, or a group of individuals working collectively toward a common goal, to make a positive difference in their community. If the nominee makes a difference as part of his/her job, the work must be exemplary -- going above and beyond the call of duty. Nominations are due by March 25, 2016. Nomination forms and instructions are available online at www.lwvsanbernardino.ca.lwvnet.org. The Citizens of Achievement reception is slated for Sunday, May 1, from 2-4 p.m., and will be held at the Elks Lodge, 2055 Elks Drive, San Bernardino. The League of Women Voters of San Bernardino was founded in 1955. It is a nonpartisan political organization that encourages informed and active participation of citizens in government. It influences public policy through education and advocacy. It never supports or opposes any political party or candidate. LWVSB has been recognizing Citizens of Achievement since 1975 and has honored over 700 men and women who have made a positive impact in the area.
