2012 CNN Hero
From children to adults, we all love our heros! This
year’s Silent Auction gives you the unique opportunity to bid on an interview
with a real-life hero.
Lake Mary Police Officer Zachiary Hudson was chosen
as a 2012 CNN Hero for his outstanding contributions to Florida senior citizens.
He was also honored with the 2010 Police Service Award at the International
Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) convention, and featured in a
Parade magazine article.
Appalled by the living conditions of senior citizens
he encountered, Officer Hudson took action. In 2009, he founded the Seniors
Intervention Group (SIG), a non-profit organization dedicated to sustaining and
improving the quality of life for our elderly citizens. Since its inception,
SIG has assisted almost 1,000 seniors.
Officer Hudson has donated two hours of his valuable
time to be interviewed by a high bidder at the Silent Auction. With his
extensive background in law enforcement, as well as his accomplishments in
community service, Zach Hudson is a plethora of information for writers. You
could use him as a resource for your own novel. Or perhaps your interview will
result in writing an article about Officer Hudson for a magazine. You and Zach
will determine your best avenue for capitalizing on this opportunity.
So, be sure to visit the Silent Auction Room at this
year’s FWA Convention to bid on the interview with Officer Hudson, as well as
the myriad of other donations.
