On October 9, Nebraska Appleseed will gather again to celebrate the outstanding contributions of individuals and organizations who have stood up for justice and opportunity for all during the 2025 Good Apple Awards. We are proud to recognize this year’s honorees.
Roots of Justice Award recognizes grassroots advocates who have made outstanding contributions to justice and opportunity for all and have helped build a stronger community.
”Lincoln for Fair Housing is a coalition of Lincoln residents and community organizations dedicated to ensuring fair housing opportunities for all Lincolnites. First convened in the summer of 2023, the coalition went on to run a ballot initiative to protect Lincoln renters from source-of-income discrimination. In May of 2025, it passed with 66% of the vote and source-of-income discrimination is now illegal in Lincoln. The coalition continues working to progress fair housing policy so that everyone can have a place to call home.” – Elizabeth Engman, Senior Community Organizer, Economic Justice – Housing Justice
