NSBA Youth of the Year Award

The NSBA Foundation recognizes the importance of our youth establishing strong volunteer roots at an early age. This award rewards NSBA youth who spend time volunteering in their community. In addition to providing an award for the winner, the NSBA Foundation makes a $500 donation to the charity of the winner’s choice in the winner’s name.
In 2021, a recognition scholarship was established with the Susan Scott Memorial Fund to award a $4,000 scholarship to the annual award winner. Additionally in 2022, another donation allows 4 national finalists to receive a $1,000 stipend.
