All three Delta Rotary Clubs are excited to announce that Rotary Delta Youth Awards are back.
Ladner, Tsawwassen and North Delta Rotary are presenting the awards at the Genesis Theatre at Delta Secondary on Monday, June 12 at 7 p.m. with a special ceremony to honour those young people who have contributed to their community by reaching out to others or by showing remarkable courage and strength, combatted adversity and hardship or have demonstrated global citizenship by helping those in other parts of the world.
“Rotary Delta Youth Awards honour some truly amazing young people. It is both humbling and inspiring to recognize these unsung heroes,” said Awards Chair Leslie Abramson. “We are reaching out to the schools, churches, sporting associations, youth groups, non-profits, and the people of Delta to nominate worthy young people of school age.”
Nominations are open until May 29 in the following four categories: Compassion and Empathy for those demonstrating individual acts of caring and kindness to others; Inner Strength for youth who made something good out of a bad situation or overcame adversity; Helping Hand for that all-round young person who helps others without seeking personal rewards or praise; or the Global Award for projects undertaken by youth that are international in nature.
If you know someone of school age who meets the above categories, contact Leslie Abramson at: [email protected] for a nomination form.
