Discover an Award for Innovative Young People!

September 14, 2021

This opportunity comes from our friends at NASSP:

Your students want to build a better world. We want to celebrate them through a new awards program.                

As an educator, you give students every opportunity to succeed. And now you can help them even more, as they take aim at some of society's most urgent issues.

Discover Prudential Emerging Visionaries — the exciting national recognition program that awards young people who have innovative solutions to a financial or societal challenge. It's a program you can use to motivate students to think deeper about financial and societal matters and inspire innovation.

Emerging Visionaries is the evolution of Prudential's long-running Spirit of Community Awards program, which for 26 years has honored over 150,000 outstanding youth volunteers. This revitalized program refines that focus, by asking young people to create solutions specifically geared to financial and societal challenges. 

Help Students Apply for Prudential Emerging Visionaries 

Now through November 4, 2021, applications are being accepted from young leaders, age 14-18, who bring powerful vision and real change to financial and societal challenges. 

Those selected may qualify for up to $15,000 in awards, an all-expenses paid trip with their parent or guardian to Prudential headquarters — as well as coaching and skills development to help take their innovation to the next level. Prudential Emerging Visionaries is a collaboration between Prudential Financial and Ashoka, a leading social impact organization. Financial health advisory support is provided by the Financial Health Network
