I have to start by saying this was one of the hardest decisions I had to make. Each entry I received was amazing and the way all of you have helped people in your community is just plain awesome. Good on you, folks, to be reaching out and helping others when they need it most.
Having said that, I have a winner, but I also have a runner up. These two ladies both helped their own communities, despite overcoming their own hardships of being a full time law student in Miami and being a full time business owner in India, and have reached out to their community to help people less fortunate.
I use to be a law student. I know that it's virtually impossible to make time to shower and eat regular meals when you're reading case after case and writing briefs, dispositions, essays, reports, summaries, etc., let alone also reach out and volunteer precious time.
Having said that, my grand prize winner is Anisha D. from Chandigarh, India and, even though I wasn't going to have a second place winner, my runner up is Leslie M. from Miami, Florida!
CONGRATULATIONS, ladies! Good job. I have been in touch with you both regarding your prizes.
