<![CDATA[Many African youths in their leadership capacity continue to make positive changes in their communities. They are doing more outside of the classroom, and using their creative minds to help make significant differences in their neighborhoods. To honor these young achievers, Africa Youth Network in collaboration with 54 Kingdoms LLC and other stakeholders, will host a first ever African Youth Excellence Recognition Forum – recognizing exceptional young Africans in Massachusetts. The African Youth Excellence Recognition Forum will be held on Saturday, August 25, 2012 at the Coral Seafood Restaurant in Worcester, Massachusetts. The forum is a formal event expecting to draw in over 200 attendees all across New England. Tickets are available before and at the door. Tickets are $30 a person and it includes dinner, desert and drinks. To be considered for an award, nominees must fit the criteria for each category. Nominations are open now through Wednesday, August 15, 2012. All nominations can be sent to professionalsplanning@gmail.com. Nominees should provide personal information such as name, phone, age and email address along with a short description of their project or accomplishment. In addition, African owned businesses and African non-profit organizations based in Massachusetts are encouraged to nominate young professionals who are making positive changes in their communities. This is a non-profit event. Thus, sponsors and partners are welcome to make this event a successful one. “It doesn’t take one person giving a lot, but a lot of people giving a few to create positive change.” – 54 Kingdoms LLC ]]>
