The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is now accepting nominations for the President’s Environmental Youth Award.  The deadline for nominations is March 8.

The President’s Environmental Youth Award recognizes outstanding environmental projects by K-12 youth. The Program promotes awareness of our nation's natural resources and encourages positive community involvement.

Each year the awards program honors a wide variety of projects developed by young individuals, school classes (kindergarten through high school), summer camps, public interest groups, and youth organizations to promote environmental awareness.

Thousands of young people from all 50 states and the U.S. territories have submitted projects to EPA for consideration.

In 2017, Ardmore, Delaware County brothers Devin and Roldan Kramer won the President’s Environmental Youth Award for grade levels K-5 for their work to save frogs and toads.
