Thank you to the nominators who allowed us to meet such inspiring leaders. During the ceremony each nominator introduced their honoree and told everyone why they nominated them to receive the Foster Youth Leadership Award 2010. HEY’s goal is to honor the young leaders and at the same time show the honorees that there are others working as hard as they are and that they are not in the battle alone.
