BIGGER AND BETTER ETHEKWINI MUNICIPALITY 2009 LIVING LEGENDS AWARDS
The success of the launch of the "Living Legends" Awards last year by the eThekwini Municipality, Local History Museums department has prompted them to hold the event again this year. The project's success even got sponsors interested in being part of it. Mlungisi Ngubane Director of Local History Museum says that, "We are giving community members the recognition they deserve in their respective fields. There is a tendency to posthumously honour people. The Living Legends Awards seeks to honour legends while they are still alive."
The community is requested to nominate the legends who are from within the eThekwini Municipality boundaries in the following fields: Sports, Music, Arts and Drama, Politics and Social responsibility. Upon nominating someone it is crucial to provide a brief profile stating why that individual is nominated.
Nominations should be forward to KwaMuhle Museum. Submission of names should be addressed to:
- Mlungisi Ngubane, Director of Local History Museum at Ngubanem@durban.gov.za
Motivations can also be posted to the following address:
