Nominations Invited for Gloria Barron Prize for
Young Heroes

Deadline: April 30, 2008

The Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes (
http://barronprize.org/ ) seeks nominations for its
2008 awards.

The Barron Prize honors young people between the ages
of 8 and 18 who have made a significant positive
difference to people and our planet. Each year, the
Barron Prize selects ten winners from across the
U.S. -- five focused on helping their communities and
fellow beings, and the other five focused on protecting
the health and sustainability of the environment.

Nominees must be the prime mover of a service activity
and have demonstrated positive spirit and high moral
purpose in accomplishing their goals. Nominees must be
nominated by a responsible adult who has solid
knowledge of the young person's heroic activities and
is not related to the nominee.

The ten national winners will each receive $2,000 to
support their service work or higher education.

For more information and/or to nominate a young person,
