You’re never too young to make a
difference in your community. Whether you’re a parent, aunt, uncle, teacher or
anyone else, you probably know a young woman in Albuquerque who displays a
tremendous amount of compassion, charity, and a sense of community on a daily
basis.
Here in Albuquerque, there are a lot
of companies and organizations that support youth service and charity, such as
ABQ Journal’s SAGE Magazine, the Coronado Center, and the National Hispanic
Cultural Center. And all of these organizations are teaming up this month to
gather nominations for the 2014 SAGE Making a Difference award.
So if you know a particularly
committed young woman here in ABQ, submit them for consideration! Here’s some
more information on how to apply, from the ABQ Journal website:
Applications must include:
- A nomination letter, about 300 words. Letter can be from a teacher, adviser, relative — someone who can describe how the young woman is making a difference.
- An essay, about 500 words, written by the nominee about what she’s doing to make a difference and why. Submit applications by mail or online at ABQjournal.com/sage by March 5.
