2024 Whitney M. Young, Jr. Service Award

The national Whitney M. Young, Jr. Service Award is designed to recognize those individuals and corporations who have been instrumental in the development of Scouting for rural, urban, and suburban youth who often face challenging barriers. This award recognizes “unsung heroes,” those who do exceptional service for disadvantaged youth.

Hightower Trail District is very proud to announce Lalith Silva as our district’s Whitney M. Young, Jr. Service Award Honoree. Lalith will be awarded during the Atlanta Area Council’s Whitney M. Young Reception on September 12th, 2024, along with other honorees from districts in the Atlanta Area Council.

Thankyou Lalith for all that you have done to support the Scouting Program for at-risk youth. Helping to provide experiences that develop self-esteem, character values and overall enhancing the lives of young people in disadvantaged areas of our community.
