The Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce Charitable Foundation board is actively seeking nominations for its annual service to community award, the H.E.R.B.I.E. The H.E.R.B.I.E. award is inspired by Saint Paul native and hockey legend Herb Brooks. The qualities and attributes HERBIE stands for are Humanitarian, Enterprising, Resilient, Bold, Inspirational and Ethical. NOMINATIONS ARE DUE NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 2008.

This award honors an individual and a company for demonstrating exemplary dedication to the community through significant public service. ‘Community’ is defined by the primary geographic area served by our chamber membership (Saint Paul and East Metro area).

Recognizing that many people volunteer and honor our community with service, we accept that an Individual nominated MUST live or work in the Saint Paul/East Metro area, but his/her place of employment does not need to be a member of our chamber.

If a Company/Business is being nominated – they MUST be a member in good standing with our chamber. A member company may be nominated only if their membership with the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce is greater than one year.

Through their service to the community, the individual or business must have made a significant contribution by fostering a climate of excellence that enhanced the Saint Paul/ East Metro area, creating a desirable place to live and work.
