Violet Richardson Award
Are you a young woman
between 14-17 who volunteers in your community or school? Who sees challenges
instead of obstacles? The Violet Richardson Award recognizes young women who make their
community and world a better place through volunteer efforts such as fighting
drugs, crime and violence, cleaning up the environment and working to end
discrimination and poverty. This award is not a scholarship. Rather it is an
