Are you a young woman between the ages of 14 and 17 who volunteers in your community or school? The Soroptimist International Violet Richardson Award recognizes young women who make their community and the world a better place through their volunteer efforts. Actions that benefit women or girls are of particular interest.
Soroptimist International of Anchorage will be giving awards of $1,000. Half will go to the girl, and the other half will go to the girl’s volunteer organization. Local winners then become eligible for additional awards.
The deadline to apply has been extended to Sunday, Dec. 15. Download an application by visiting http://girlscoutsalaska.org/images/VRAApplication_2013-2014.pdf.
