Do you know a single mother in the Hampton Roads communities who deserves special recognition?

If you know someone like this, then Still Hope Foundation would like to receive your nomination.
Still Hope Foundation, Inc. is a 501(c) 3, non-profit, charitable organization that focuses on empowering single mothers (from teens to widows). Having been inspired by their own mothers, the founders of Still Hope created the Dorian Award to honor their mothers.
In choosing the Dorian Award recipient, the selection committee will consider the single mother's:
