The Jenzabar Foundation is pleased to announce the opening of nominations for its second annual Student Leadership Awards. We invite nominations from individuals, educational institutions, or non-profit organizations that have produced work that is consistent with the mission of The Jenzabar Foundation.

The mission of The Jenzabar Foundation is to recognize and support the good works and humanitarian efforts of student leaders serving others across the global community.  The Foundation seeks to foster a culture of service and to educate and inspire future generations to create a better world.

The Jenzabar Foundation 2009 Student Leadership Awards will recognize student leaders who have made a significant impact by helping to make the world a better place outside of their educational communities, either through work with a campus group or other recognized non-profit organization.
