The 2010 David Pike Excellence in Journalism Awards Ceremony was a great success! This was our third year hosting these awards which honor journalists who shed light on and challenge common perceptions about homelessness. The Awards are given out in remembrance of former Street Sense volunteer and board member David Pike who joined us after a 40-year career in journalism covering the Supreme Court. The Awards honor David’s legacy and acknowledge those in mainstream media who work tirelessly to uncover the stories of the poor and homeless that are so often left unexplored.

We had a record number of over 100 attendees and broke new ground by introducing a People’s Choice Photography Award, the winner of which was chosen by the staff, vendors and volunteers. Highlights of the evening included an uplifting speech by Mr. John Driscoll, President and CEO of the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans and a heart-warming presentation of awards by our vendors Jeffrey McNeil, Sybil Taylor and David Denny.
