MIAMI, FL / ACCESSWIRE / May 20, 2020 / Joshua's Heart Foundation (JHF) has a knack for grooming youth into philanthropic minded young adults. Young people typically volunteer for the opportunity to gain valuable service hours for their graduation requirements. However, the value of the experiences and lessons learned during their JHF tenure proves immeasurable.
In a virtual award ceremony, hosted by NBC6 Morning News anchor, Johnny Archer, Joshua's Heart held its 2020 JHF Extra Mile Awards Ceremony. They recognize ten outstanding volunteers and Junior Advisory Board (JAB)Members for outstanding contribution to the movement and the mission. These ten individuals went above and beyond the call of duty to serve the most vulnerable members in South Florida communities.
Introducing the JHF 2020 Extra Mile Award Honorees:
The 2020 Extra Mile Award presentation was sponsored by JAB member Mary's parents Susan and David Woolsey. The event was organized by JAB members Ariana, Ana, Sydnie, Amogh, Sophia and JAB parent Bhavna. As shelter-in-place overwhelms the economy, ordinary people face unimaginable need. We see that need being fulfilled on many levels. Taking the opportunity to honor young people who recognize need in their communities 365 days a year under normal circumstances could not be overlooked. JHF wholeheartedly appreciates the work of all their JAB members and youth volunteers and proudly shares their accomplishments.
