Rotary Club searching for Hidden Hero
Rotary Club of Farragut has called for nominations from the community for the 2025 Hidden Hero Award to recognize an unsung hero in Knox County community who goes out of his or her way to help others.
“The Hidden Hero Award is our way to honor an individual in our community
who exemplifies the Rotary motto of ‘Service Above Self,’” RCF president Candace Viox said.
Anyone may nominate an individual for the Hidden Hero Award; however, “nominees must live, work or render
service in Knox County and demonstrate a strong commitment to service to others,” RCF member Thomas Woodbery said.
Nominees do not have to be a member of Rotary.
To nominate a person as a Hidden Hero, “complete a brief form explaining why you think that person deserves special recognition and showing examples of that person’s service,” he said. “The form can be completed in minutes and is available at bit.ly/46uLPKL.
Last year’s Hidden Hero was Farrell Levy, a Farragut attorney who founded The Dream Connection, an all-volunteer nonprofit that has made dreams come true for more than 1,100 children suffering life-threatening illnesses.
The deadline for nominations is Wednesday, Oct. 15. Farragut Rotary Club will announce the award winner in November.
For more information about the award, contact Woodbery at twoodbery@gmail.com.
