NATIVE STUDENT, JEFF MAY (OJIBWE), NOMINATED FOR READER’S DIGEST “HERO OF THE YEAR 2005": VOTE ONLINE

Each year, Reader’s Digest nominates everyday citizens for their “Hero of the Year” award and this year, Jeff May (Ojibwe) of Red Lake, Minnesota has been selected as a nominee.

Jeff May, high school student, courageously and boldly saved the lives of fellow students and community members by distracting and attacking the disturbed gunman, Jeff Weise. Witnesses estimate Jeff saved at least a dozen lives in his classroom, with Jeff’s quick thinking and reaction.

NIEA congratulates Jeff May for his brave actions on that tragic day. We ask that you vote for him as your favorite everyday hero in the Reader’s Digest online poll (to vote).

Below is the link to the article which features Jeff May’s courageous actions.
Reader's Digest - JEFF MAY
