The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards 2017

If you've made a difference by volunteering in your community over the past year, you could win $1,000 and a fabulous trip to Washington, D.C., by applying for a Prudential Spirit of Community Award!  Even more importantly, you could win recognition that might inspire other young people to follow your example. These prestigious awards, sponsored by Prudential Financial and the National Association of Secondary School Principals, have honored tens of thousands of middle level and high school students over the past 20 years solely for their volunteer work.

You must:

1.  Be in grades 5-12 as of November 7, 2017, and a legal resident of one of the 50 United States or the District of Columbia.

2.  Have participated in a volunteer activity at least in part after September 1, 2016.

3.  Complete and submit an online application by November 7, 2017 - atspirit.prudential.com or nassp.org/spirit.  You can also call 1-855-670-4787

After all students have submitted an application, we will only be able to nominate one student from Marriotts Ridge High School.  Please see Ms. Dubbs in Student Services if you have any questions.
