The “Nominate Hometown Hero” program by Rise IPL is an initiative that encourages community members to nominate local businesses or organizations that are making significant and positive impacts within their communities. Through this program, individuals are invited to nominate businesses or organizations that they believe are doing extraordinary and commendable work. Nominated hometown heroes will receive a heartfelt letter of recognition from Rise IPL, delivered via email, acknowledging their outstanding contributions. 

These hometown heroes will be spotlighted across Rise IPL’s social media platforms, allowing their efforts to be celebrated and shared with a wider audience. This program extends beyond geographical boundaries, as hometown heroes can be nominated from anywhere across the U.S. In appreciation of their dedication and hard work, nominated organizations will also receive a complimentary meal for administrative staff, with a value not exceeding $250. Previous hometown heroes have received lunches from generous partners such as Big Daddy Red’s, Wegmans, Domino’s, Chick-fil-A, and many more, further demonstrating the community’s appreciation for their impactful efforts. The “Nominate Hometown Hero” program serves as a platform to honor and recognize the unsung heroes who are making a difference in their communities, while also fostering a culture of gratitude and appreciation.
