Young Providers Award
$1,000 Cash Prize
The Young Providers Award honors young people from the BSNC region who contribute on a daily basis to the health and well-being of their families, communities and culture.
This award recognizes a young person who perpetuates Alaska Native culture and a positive lifestyle not by measure of academic or financial success, but by serving as positive examples and providing for their community in one or more of the following ways:
- He/she cares for family through subsistence activities, Elder care, or mentoring of young people in traditional activities and values or education.
- He/she is involved in activities that benefit the community such as suicide prevention programs, youth sports, and community wellbeing and health.
The deadline for nominations is July 8, 2021. Nominations will be accepted from family members, tribal and corporation board members, school teachers or administrators and community members.
