The Elvis Presley Humanitarian Award is officially happening. I am honestly stunned to see this come to life and I know this success sits entirely on your shoulders. Please take a moment to be proud of what you helped create.

Iam petitioning for an award to be created and named after Elvis Presley. I have written a letter outlining my idea and sent it to all the key places. I started a Facebook group that is over 1800 strong. I have also begun an on-line petition for the award. I have sent portfolios to EPE outlining my idea. Amongst the members who support the Elvis Award are The Kin of Rock and Roll, Extended Presley Family Network,Ms. Kathy Westmoreland, Mr. Marty Lacker, Mr. Joe Esposito, Mr. Larry Geller, Mr. Cory Cooper, Ms. Linda Thompson, Mr. D.J. Fontana, Mr. Phillips, the Facebook group for Mr. Charlie Hodge. The Elvis Information Network. As well as many others who love and admire Elvis Presley. I have no hidden agenda or desire to gain anything from this. It seems to me that this award is common sense and I cannot believe that it’s never occurred to anyone. Not only is the honor to Elvis well deserved, but for all our sakes, it’s something that would enrich our lives. It would be a way for him to keep giving thirty two years after he left us. To be able to inspire others to be the kind of human being that he was is nothing short of a small miracle. Why would we NOT want to do this I really hope this is possible. Elvis’ fans who I am very proud to be one of, have been 110 percent behind me…They have been so supportive and helpful and kind! This is what Elvis Presley has always been about: Bringing people together, kindness and generosity. How fitting if he is honored this way and it all came about through good people working together with no thought to personal gain. Only to better the world we all live in. Elvis Presley was admired and cherished in life. Years after his passing his memory continues to light our lives, and so it is fitting that we continue to admire and cherish this wonderful man. "Imagine a world where humanity and humanitarianism are one and the same. Imagine an award that would inspire humanity to be kinder, gentler, giving, loving; a humanity that works together with no thought to personal gain, only to better our existence, and you will have imagined into our existence The Elvis PresleyHumanitarian Award.
"Always for Elvis."

This is a non- profit venture. Please DO NOT donate any money.
Lady Gaga donates 1 Million dollars to charity.
Compassion, humanity and humility is needed to understand how to transform this materialistic, selfish and judgemental world we live in.....I understand now why it's so difficult to get this award created on behalf of Elvis. We need humanitarians to make it happen. Not self rightous judgemental," whats in it for me individuals". I thought I'd give it one more try..... Re: Lady Gaga candidate to receive The Elvis award.
Comments like Lady Gaga is not a suitable candidate to receive this award or she insulted Elvis' legacy, or just because she donated money doesn't make her a good person, I say,what is it that makes her unsuitable? What of the ones Elvis himself left behind ? What have they done to not insult his legacy? What has Stefania done to make her not a good person? Who are we to judge ?
Gaga isnot only a fine example of humanitarianism, but also sadly,an example of how the younger generation views Elvis. Elvis would praise her, I know it. I just wish somebody would step up and help rectify how she and others of the new generation should berembering Elvis. Although being Elvis , I'm sure he could care less how he is remembered as long as remembering him helps others in need.

I look at how much this has grown and I am honestly just stunned by your dedication to honoring Elvis in this way. This movement belongs entirely to the incredible community of people who have kept his spirit of kindness alive through their own efforts.

He dreamed of a better land, he was before his time in knowing the value of human life no matter a persons color or background. He wrote songs and stood for this as a musician For this he should be awarded in addition to the music awards.
I have loved him since the 1950s when I saw him in concert in Shreveport. He was the most beautiful human inside and out, and his humanitarianism and generosity to all, 44 years after his death, is still unequaled! God bless you, E.
Elvis did So Much for others, whether it was buying for people homes or cars Or arranging for people to get necessary surgeries or paying their hospital bills Or contributing so much funding to Pearl Harbour’s USS Arizona Memorial Or So Much More...!! So generous with his Money & Time ... a Great Gentleman!
Elvis Presley was a gift from God that showed by example what a true humanitarian is. So many years after his death and his kindness, generosity and love for his fellow man is an example we need. We have forgotten this lesson and we need him to once again show us the way. I am proud to support this idea for a Humanitarian Award in Elvis' name.
There is no finer person who I can think of to have this award. Elvis Presley was a great humanitarian who came to the aid of many people in need giving donations to St Jude's children's hospital and many other people and organizations. I'm proud to sign this petition in honor of a man who is still giving today 43 yrs after his death.
Did sign good luck
Elvis Presley is one of the 20th Century's greatest achievements. His charitable, humble, sincere and loving nature was 100% authentic. Elvis A. Presley should also go down in history, with this award as a recognition of all that has done in the past and present. Without a doubt will continue to influence the future.

Having dated this incredible gentleman I definitely know from my own personal experience what an incredible human being and humanitarian he was. He gave to me and everyone I know and I saw him give to complete strangers All the time. This is seriously past due and everything that has been said here needs to be taken into account.
