Nomination Qualifications

Spirit of the Award: With prominence comes the ability to profoundly influence others. Some people use their renown to focus on themselves. But others — those for whom the Careity Legend Award was created — use their fame as a platform for serving others. Not only do they call attention to needs that might be overlooked, but they invest themselves personally in worthy causes.

A Careity Legend is a national celebrity who is devoted to philanthropic leadership. Specifically, they have demonstrated personal commitment to Careity Foundation's work in preserving and enhancing quality life for cancer patients and children. They have personally spread our story, promoted our work, expanded our resources, and encouraged our efforts in their everyday lives.

This prestigious award was created to acknowledge a celebrity legend who genuinely exemplifies the spirit of caring, volunteerism, and humanitarianism in his/her life. While we recognize the recipient's work for Careity Foundation in particular, we are also recognizing a genuine outpouring of concern for others that marks all of a Careity Legend's life. When character is tested by the opportunity to focus exclusively on themselves, they have chosen instead to use their gifts to help and influence others.
