When Calgarian youth get involved in their communities, we at CYFC think that it’s worth recognizing. We posted about the YMCA Calgary Peace Medals and CYFC’s own ConocoPhillips Youth of Distinction Awards, and now the City of Calgary is gearing up to recognize citizens with the Calgary Awards.
For the awesome youth in Calgary, there is a special category that is part of the Community Achievement Awards. This award is presented to a youth whose “exceptional achievements have brought recognition to, or improved the quality of life in, Calgary,” with a focus on volunteer and community contributions. We’re proud to say that last year the award was granted to an awesome CYFC volunteer, Natasha Somani.
If you would like to nominate someone, the form can be found here, and is due March 5th, 2010.
