The Prudential Foundation - Prudential Spirit of Community Awards
The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards program is the United States' largest youth recognition program based exclusively on volunteer community service. In partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals, the Awards honor middle level and high school students for outstanding service to others at the local, state, and national level.
Eligible applicants include any young person who is in grades 5-12 as of the last weekday in October during the applying year and has engaged in a volunteer activity that occurred at least partly during the 12 months prior to the date of application. Students chosen as Local Honorees receive a Certificate of Achievement from their schools or organizations. State Honorees receive an award of $1,000, an engraved silver medallion, and an all-expense-paid trip to Washington, DC for national recognition events. National Honorees receive an additional award of $5,000, an engraved gold medallion, a crystal trophy for their schools or organizations, and a $5,000 grant from The Prudential Foundation for a non-profit, charitable organization of their choice.
