I keep thinking about how many people helped make the FECK Awards possible.
The stories we were able to recognize and share reached beyond that evening because of the support of our judges, sponsors and everyone who believed in this mission from the very beginning.
Thank you!

The amazing thing about the FECK Awards winners is why they won. That really stood out. The impact they made, the people they showed up for. The care behind what they do. A reminder of what truly matters.

I’ve been hearing from so many people reading or sharing It’s Time to Give a FECK lately. That means a lot. If you’ve read it, I’d love to hear what stayed with you.
