Northeastern University Center for Family Business announces a call for nominations for their 5th Annual Massachusetts Family Business of the Year Award. Applications are due by May 6, 2011. The awards dinner to celebrate and announce the recipients is scheduled for June 8 and will be held at the Henderson House, Weston, MA.
Nominations are welcome directly from family businesses as well as the business community at large.
Last year Piantedosi Baking Company, Malden MA won the Karofsky Award for companies with over 100 employees, Normandy Farms Family Camping Resort, Foxboro, MA won the Molloy Award for 25 - 100 employees, and Ruma's Fruit & Gift Basket World, Everett, MA won the Paisner Award for companies with less than 25 employees.
A panel of independent judges will evaluate and select the winners based on business success, positive business and family linkages, multi-generational family involvement, contributions to the community and industry, and innovative business practices or strategies. Judges include a Northeastern University faculty member, a Family Firm Institute advisor and a former winner of the award.
The award presents a unique opportunity for family businesses to obtain significant regional press exposure, an opportunity to reflect on their own successes and challenges through the years and a chance to recognize the valuable contribution of their employees, suppliers and stakeholders.
The award categories are based on the number of full-time employees. All Massachusetts-based family-owned, businesses that include, or have included, more than one generation are eligible.
"Family businesses are the backbone of our economy," stated Ted Clark, director of the Northeastern University Center for Family Business. Clark continued, "Family businesses provide sixty percent of employment in the U.S. and seventy-eight percent of all new jobs. Our awards celebrate and recognize the best in family business and what they contribute to the community."
Past Massachusetts Family Business of the Year Award winners include: SALMON Health and Retirement, Elaine Construction, Bernie & Phyl's Furniture, New England Coffee, The Lupoli Companies, Avedis Zildjian Co., Camp Thoreau, and Crescent Ridge Dairy.
The Massachusetts Family Business of the Year Awards program was originally created in a partnership between Northeastern University's Center for Family Business and The Family Firm Institute New England Chapter to promote and highlight some of the great achievements of Massachusetts-based, family-owned businesses and entrepreneurs.

I have a good paying job, I pay taxes, and I support universal health care. Want to know why?
It's because I'm not self-centered, and a little bit more in taxes really won't make any difference in the way I live. If someone else is in pain and I can help ease their suffering, then that's what I should do. It's the moral thing to do.
I don't see any reason why people can't continue with their current health plan if they choose to do so. If you don't want to have a government doctor, fine, then don't. But government doctors should at least be made available to those who would otherwise have no doctor at all.
universal health care is only a ploy to control how we act..........you want to know why?............
social health care ..
"oh, you are having heart problems?".
" we can not ( will not) help you because you smoke"..
"sorry" ....
"oh, you need a hip replacement?".......
"we can not (will not) help you because you like to hike in the woods too much".............
" oh, you need a stint in you artery?"......
" we can not (will not) help you because you eat too many hamburgers" .
."sorry"
CONTROL over our daily lives is the BIG PLAN
**********edit*********************
the quality of care you get now, as a "paying patient " is not that great , because of the high demand for emergency health care.....think about the "quality" of health care you would get if the doctor that is treating you is getting paid by the hour and is only looking at the clock to see what time he/she is getting off.......
there is NO motivation to become a doctor at that rate
