For over a decade our Light a Fire awards have honored the special people in our community who go above and beyond to make a difference in the lives of others. They are the unsung champions of giving who see a need, roll up their sleeves and get to work.
Our November 2024 issue we will once again honor the philanthropic work of our friends and neighbors, but we need your help!
