For over three decades, the Kandler Award has honored the indomitable spirit of former ACLU of Delaware President Gerry Kandler. The Kandler Award recognizes those members of the community who, like Mr. Kandler, represent the highest commitment to ensuring the civil rights and liberties of all Delawareans.

We look forward to reading about all of the local heroes in your life and choosing two exemplary Delawareans to honor at this year's event.
