Each year, FAAN recognizes individuals or organizations that have provided outstanding service or have made significant contributions to food allergy awareness, education, outreach or advocacy. The awards were named in honor of the daughter of Anne Muñoz-Furlong, FAAN's founder.  If  you know someone who has made an impact in the life of an individual with food or other anaphylactic allergies, please nominate them!  You may nominate your child’s doctor, a teacher, a friend of the family, or even a group of people who have collectively helped make a difference.

MCF Award recipients are recognized for their involvement in increasing awareness and education associated with food allergies in four categories:

• Community Service (e.g., individual, civic organization, support group leader)
  
• School (e.g., school nurse, principal, teacher, school district, school staff, food service staff, school board member)
  
• Health Professional (e.g., dietitian, doctor, physician’s assistant, nurse, allergist, food scientist, researcher)
  
• Food Industry (e.g., food manufacturer, food service company, restaurant, grocery store)
  

DEADLINE IS JANUARY 15!
