Please join us for an inspirational evening honoring bold young environmental leaders at our 8th Annual Brower Youth Awards - Wednesday, October 24th, at Herbst Theatre in San Francisco. U.C.-Berkeley undergraduate and CACS-member Rachel Barge, who helped lead a campaign to dramatically increase funding for sustainability projects at Cal, is among the winners of the 2007 Brower Youth Awards. The Awards Ceremony and Dessert Reception are free and open to all, with a special call out to young people.

Each year, after a competitive application process, the Brower Youth Awards are given to six environmental leaders ages 13 to 22 from North America. The winners each receive a $3,000 cash prize, are honored at a formal awards ceremony in San Francisco, and participate in skills-building and mentoring workshops geared toward furthering their leadership development. Past winners have launched their own environmental organizations—such as the campus climate coalition Energy Action—or found prominent positions in some of the country's largest environmental groups.
