MSNBC.com’s The Elkhart Project was the winner of the National Press Club’s Joan M. Friedenberg Online Journalism Award for its multimedia presentation of how one community that was hit hard by the recession is struggling to survive and preserve its community spirit.

President Barack Obama will visit Elkhart Wednesday, where NBC News chief White House correspondent Chuck Todd will ask him questions from MSNBC.com
