YOUTH IN OUR COMMUNITY ARE DOING AMAZING THINGS!
Our community is full of young people who quietly make life better for others - students who volunteer their time, youth groups who take on service projects, and individual kids who choose kindness and responsibility even when no one is watching. These moments of character deserve to be seen, celebrated, and shared.
The Community Character Coalition invites you to nominate a youth group, individual student, or school organization that is demonstrating strong character and contributing positively to our community. Whether they’re helping neighbors, supporting local causes, leading by example, or simply showing consistent integrity in their daily lives, we want to honor the good they bring into the world.
Why Recognizing Youth Matters
When we highlight young people who are doing good, we do more than celebrate their actions - we reinforce the values that strengthen our entire community.
Recognition:
· Encourages positive behavior by showing youth that their choices matter
· Builds confidence in young leaders who are just beginning to discover their influence
· Inspires others to step forward and contribute in their own way
· Creates a culture of character where kindness, responsibility, and service are noticed and valued
Every nomination helps shine a light on the next generation of community builders. Your submission could be the encouragement a young person needs to keep going, keep growing, and keep giving back.
If you know a young person or group who deserves to be recognized, we’d love to hear their story. Together, we can celebrate the character that makes our community stronger.
