1 - Webmasters/webmistresses who give back of themselves to the worldwide Net community, offering their talents, their skills, their web sites, as resource points for other people who are interested in bettering themselves and their own sites ... These special people are a great asset to the World Community because they offer their advice and expertise to all who seek it, and everyday, they are making the Internet a better place to be !
2 - This award will also be granted to those special people who display love, tolerance, understanding, compassion, and all-inclusiveness to the Worldwide community, and who understand the true meaning of "We are the World" -- these folks don't shy away from "differences" but instead they reach out to all who pass through their cyber doors !". < br /> You have done so much for the Awards community, and for certain individuals on the Net, so I feel that you are long-overdue to receive the Humanity Award (which has been given out since October, 2002)... I am both thrilled and honored to have you as a winner, and you are now listed as a recipient..."
