http://foundationcenter.org/pnd/rfp/rfp_item.jhtml;jsessionid=CDNVO4A3GOSQHLAQBQ4CGW15AAAACI2F?id=280500008
The Earth Island Institute's Brower Youth Awards annually recognize six young people in North America for their outstanding activism and achievements in the fields of environmental and environmental justice advocacy. The winners of the award receive a $3,000 cash prize, a trip to California for the award ceremony and wilderness camping trip, and ongoing access to resources and opportunities to further their work at the Earth Island Institute.
"Outstanding leadership" means that youth played a major leadership role in creating, organizing, and implementing an environmental project or campaign. The program measures impact by how a young person's efforts benefited the environment and community in terms of measurable results (e.g., acres of wildlife habitat protected or restored, number of people engaged in social issues because of the project, numbers of children no longer exposed to toxins, etc.), as well as movement-building and raising awareness.
Young activist leaders beyween the ages of 13 and 22 living in North America are eligible to apply.
