PHILADELPHIA – Do you know an outstanding young citizen who identified an area where liberty was lacking and took action to make positive change in his or her local school or community? Then don’t miss your chance to nominate him or her for the 2016 TD Bank Young Heroes Award. The opportunity to nominate a young hero closes June 24, and we are counting on local community members across the Greater Philadelphia Area to help us celebrate the young heroes who positively impact their local communities every day. Over the past 16 years, the National Liberty Museum and TD Bank, America’s Most Convenient Bank, have celebrated young heroes who have:
· Demonstrated civic engagement
· Promoted peaceful resolutions to conflict
· Promoted tolerance and diversity
· Demonstrated leadership
· Worked against violence in Philadelphia
· And much more!
Winners will be selected by a panel assembled by the National Liberty Museum and will receive recognition at an awards ceremony at the Museum; a certificate, medallion and gifts; and a plaque featuring their story in the Museum’s Young Heroes Exhibit. One winner is named the President’s Honor Winner and receives a monetary scholarship.
The nomination period is open and now runs through June 24, and we are counting on local community members across the Greater Philadelphia Area to help us celebrate the young heroes who positively impact their local communities every day. https://libertymuseum.org/young-heroes-award-2016/
