2020 Good Neighbors Awards! Stay tuned for more information about our honorees!

Citizens for a Fair Ferndale is pleased to announce the 2020 Good Neighbor = Strong Community awards. The awards celebrate the ongoing efforts of those who live, work and attend school in Ferndale, who value the fair and equal treatment of others and are engaged in making this happen on a daily basis. The Good Neighbors = Strong Community Awards program identifies and honors individuals, organizations and businesses in our community who are outstanding examples of “good neighbors.”
