Call to a member function on a non-object in functions.php

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in functions.php on line 211

I'm using :

PHP Code:

$awards=$DB_site->query("SELECT awardsid,name, url FROM award"); 

in functions.php but it dont accept it.

How is it possible to execute a query like above in functions.php?

Thanks

Gloablize $DB_site in whichever function you are using that query in.

Thanks FireFly, that worked.
