*Call for Applicants! *
The Brower Youth Awards just launched the 2009 prize search for outstanding
youth leaders. We're looking for individuals ages 13-22 with the power and
persistence to create environmental change.
The Brower Youth Awards honors six young people annually with a $3000 cash
award and weeklong trip to the San Francisco Bay Area. During that week,
award recipients will participate in a week of media and public outreach and
be recognized at an awards ceremony attended by 900 members of the public.
Past winners have protected Native sacred sites from development, restored
wetlands, spread awareness about threatened sea turtles, pushed for a clean
energy future, and more. Their impact doesn't stop there. They continue as
environmental change agents, writers, organizers, visionaries, and speakers,
supported by Earth Island Institute's New Leaders Initiative. Join them!
Apply today for the 2009 Brower Youth Award at
http://www.broweryouthawards.org. Applications for the 2009 awards are due
May 15.
