Submit Your Nominations for Georgia's 20 Under 20
Similar to South Cobb Patch's Whiz Kids, one organization is looking for the top young people in the state. Nominate some of these incredible young people from Mableton and Austell.
Do you know a student who has:
- Started his own business?
- Founded her own non-profit organization?
- Created his own charity event?
- Given back to her community in an "EXTRA"ordinary way?
Each year, 21st Century Leaders partners with Atlanta Business Chronicle's 40 Under 40 to select 20 students under the age of 20 who have made a significant impact on their school or community. Members of the 40 Under 40 will present this year's 20 Under 20 class with their awards at the 4th annual "Celebrating 21st Century Leaders" event at the Georgia Institute of Technology Student Center on Oct. 19.
The 20 award recipients will be spotlighted and honored during the awards ceremony that is attended by business and community leaders from around the city of Atlanta, friends of our organization, and members of the 21st Century Leaders Board of Directors.
