The Jenzabar Foundation 2008 Student Leadership Awards
The Jenzabar Foundation is now accepting applications for the 2008 Student Leadership Awards which recognize student leaders who have led campus groups or activities that have made a significant impact outside of their campus communities, either through ongoing work or through the completion of a project, during the 2007-08 academic year. Seven student leaders will be recognized with an award and the group that they represent will be issued a $5,000 grant from The Jenzabar Foundation to continue their work and/or fund a new project that is consistent with the mission of The Jenzabar Foundation.
The mission of The Jenzabar Foundation is to recognize and support the good works and humanitarian efforts of student leaders serving others across the global community. The Foundation seeks to foster a culture of service and to educate and inspire future generations to create a better world.
Nominations are open to student organizations from any institution of higher education. While self-nominations will be accepted, The Jenzabar Foundation would prefer that nominations be made by a representative of the institution that has sanctioned the group of activity.
Nominations must be received by September 12, 2008. To learn more visit: http://www.jenzabar.net/about_jbar/TJF_2008StudentLeadershipAwards.html
