TCY Youth of the Month Program
Honoring our Youth
Introducing Tomorrow's Cultivating Youth(TCYouth) Inc.'s "Youth of the Month" Program. Letting our youth know we see them and hear them and they deserve to be rewarded for OUTSTANDING leadership, community service, exceptional GPAs and more.
Recognizing a youth's achievements demonstrates personal growth and community contributions within themselves. It's the smaller successes in life that boost a child's self-esteem.
ELIGIILITY AND NOMINATION
Any youth demonstrating the following for the quarter are eligible:
a) excellence in leadership
b) community service (TCYouth Inc. or any outside non-profit
organization) of at least a minimum of 5 hours per quarter
c) approved academics (A GPA of 3.0 or above) [Report cards
must be presented for approval.]
A more detailed list of qualifying criteria may be developed by the Youth of the Month committee at a future date.
A point system based on participation, good sportsmanship, good citizenship, TCYouth attendance, and academics status, will be developed for selecting winners.
A list of the top three to five candidates will be submitted to the judges for a final quarterly selection. Judges should base their decisions on a candidate’s well-rounded qualifications, scores and not solely on one particular outstanding achievement.
YOUTH OF THE YEAR
The Youth of the Month/Quarter will logically lead to a Youth of the Year recipient. The program committee should select a panel of judges who will be responsible for reviewing all of the winners. When the most outstanding student is selected for this prestigious award, a special Youth of the Year Award banquet will be organized. The banquet will feature a keynote speaker; a distinguished educator or other prominent person in the community. The honoree will receive an official TCYouth Inc.’s “Youth of the Year” plaque, a gift certificate, jacket and a $500 scholarship.
CONTACT US
If you have a youth grades 5th thru 12th, interested in joining our village, or you would like to volunteer, please contact us.

Ladies in Transition President -Ms. Jayla Hawkins
Hello Everyone, I'm honored to have the pleasure to be the President of TCY's Ladies in Transition Committee. My name is Jayla Hawkins and I'm 15 years o age and attend Brooke Pointe High School. I'm also the cheerleader for Brooke Point High School.
I want to pursue my career as a Traveling Nurse. I'm looking forward to leading you all, and not letting you or myself down.
This is a big step for me because I'm extremely shy and I'm not good at talking in front of people. I'm excited to get started and not let you or myself down.

"Self-Love" Mirror of Reflection Workshop
The young ladies were all asked to look into the mirror; write down something they DON'T like about themselves. Then we took that piece of paper and burned it; not bury it because when you bury something it can come back up. They all clapped afterwards.
