Prudential Financial, in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals, sponsors a nationwide awards program to honor young Americans who care about their communities. Thousands of young people across the country were considered for Prudential Spirit of Community Awards this year, and from all of these, two in Nevada have been selected for this special recognition ~ one middle level student and one high school student.

This year's state honoree is Christine Koski. Christine collected more than 1,000 new and gently used books for disadvantaged children and families in her community. Christine distributed promotional flyers, and then decorated donation boxes around schools, churches, and libraries.  Christine sorted the books they received into age appropriate categories, erased pencil marks, and repaired damaged pages and delivered the donations to Washoe County's Read to Succeed Program

As a state honoree she receives the following.

~$1,000.
~All-expense-paid four-day trip to Washington D.C. with a parent or guardian.
~Engraved silver medallion.
~A chance to win "National Honoree" award.

I presented this award to Christine yesterday at her school assembly.  Her parents and grandparents were there along with 940 students. 

Congratulations, Christine!

Great story. Companies need to do more for communities. That is a great way for a company to build their company. Exit Realty does Habitat for Humanity. Great post Catherine.
