Al 111With nearly 500,000 people age 60 or older, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties are national examples of America’s future.  Business and community leaders who support the efforts of the Alliance for Aging, applaud those older adults who are “giving back” to their communities and on Wednesday, November 19, 2014, the Alliance for Aging will present awards to individuals who are examples of Positive Living at the 8th ANNUAL POSITIVE LIVING AWARDS at Jungle Island.

 Chaired by Alliance Board member, Lorraine Harris, the Positive Living Awards is a nationally recognized event that honors individuals in eleven distinct areas – Animal/Wildlife, Arts/Sports/Media/Entertainment, Public/Corporate Service, Education/Mentoring, Environmental Protection, Faith/Interfaith, Health Care, Inter-Generational, Legal, Philanthropy, and Positive Living.

 “This is a wonderful festivity that recognizes South Florida’s senior community and their commitment to Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties,” said Harris.  “For 364 days out of the year, the Alliance serves the vulnerable elderly in our community.  This one night, they take the opportunity to celebrate our older populations’ vitality and their contributions to making our community a better place.”

 Nominations are being accepted through August 22th 2014 and will be judged by a panel of distinguished community leaders.  Winners will be announced in mid-September.
