The Robert H. Meneilly “Stand Up, Speak Out” award was created in 2001 to recognize local community leaders who demonstrate respect for the rights, beliefs and freedoms of all individuals, have the courage to stand up for justice and equality, even when unpopular, and understand the importance of the political process in securing these rights.
This special award was named in honor of our Founding Chairman, Dr. Robert H. Meneilly, whose dedication to social justice continues to inspire all of us to fight for the values we hold so dear.
MainStream's 2012 event was a huge success - with our largest attendance and most dollars raised to date! Thank you to everyone who celebrated MainStream, especially to those who were event underwriters, table hosts, and table organizers. A very special thank you to our two extraordinary honorees: Dr. Barbara Bollier, KS House Representative and Rev. George Tormohlen.
