PEAK TO PEAK JUNIOR RECEIVES BOULDER COUNTY YOUTH AWARD

 

(LAFAYETTE) – Peak to Peak High School Junior Krishna Kennedy of Lafayette has been chosen by the Boulder County Commissioners as one of four regional 2007 Metropolitan Mayors and Commissioners Youth Award honorees.  The four Boulder County winners will be honored at a banquet on May 13, 2007, along with winners from Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Clear Creek, Denver, Douglas, Gilpin, and Jefferson Counties.

The MMCYA program recognizes teens who have overcome challenges of personal adversity and serve as inspirations and role models.  Krishna was one of 32 youths presented with an MMCY Award on March 1st, and one of four award winners selected for regional recognition.  Among Krishna’s activities, he serves as a math tutor, helps raise money for the Rocky Mountain Wildlife Conservation Reserve, and works to secure donations for the international nonprofit All Together Now, a group that supports hospitals and orphanages in Nepal.
