Dear all,

Earlier Heather sent a note about HOT being shortlisted for an Open Data
Award. I'm very happy to announce that HOT is now a finalist (one of the
top 3 in the Social Impact category). This is something to be proud of, as
HOT is one of only 15 out of 500 nominations to have this honor. This is
all thanks to the work you are doing each day.

Dear Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team,

I’m writing to
​update you
 with you some good news – you have
​made it through to the final three as a finalist of the *Social Impact*
*category* of the
Open Data Award <http://awards.theodi.org/>
​s 2015 <http://awards.theodi.org/>​
.

​The judges found it really tough to pick their top three for each category
and also commented on how high the standard of entries was this year. ​

*What happens next?*

*​It is very important that you, ​or a representative, are able to attend
the awards ceremony on 9​​ July at the Bloomberg offices in London*
*​.* The winner of each category will be announced on the evening and our
founders,
Tim Berners-Lee and Nigel Shadbolt will announce the winners
​ and present them with their award trophy.
There will also be press opportunities for our finalists as
 part
​of​
 the press room at the Awards
​ - we have a number of journalists covering the evening, including
Bloomberg who are our awards partner. There will also be an​

​
opportunity to have
​a winners'
 photo taken
​by our photographer ​
should you win
​. ​You can find an agenda for the evening *here*
