The final decision now rests in the hands of a distinguished panel of celebrity judges who are experts on care, conscience and character -- Hank Aaron, Sen.

The judges will now review Adams and eight other finalists' nominations to select the program's top three winners in the categories of Safety, Quality of Life and Environment and the Volvo for life Awards grand award winner.

Adams, who founded Farm Safety 4 Just Kids after her son was tragically killed in a farm-related accident, is one of three finalists being honored in the Volvo for life Awards safety category.

If named grand award winner, she will receive the added bonus of a Volvo car for life.
