Nominate a Local Hero

People of Noblesville also makes space for sponsored and crowdfunded stories. You can nominate a coach, teacher, neighbor, local business, family, volunteer, or someone going through a difficult season.

If selected, their story can be funded by community support. Contributions help cover the cost of the story portrait. Once these stories are sponsored by community support, the honoree will receive the story portrait, a shareable digital copy, and excess funds will go directly to them.‍ ‍

Contribute to the Sponsor Fund

Community contributions help fund sponsored Story Portraits and support the people being honored.

Contributions help fund sponsored Story Portraits and related support for honorees. When a specific honoree campaign receives more than the cost of the Story Portrait, additional funds are given directly to the honoree or used to support future sponsored stories, as described in that campaign.
