FSYF Awards

The Clements International Foreign Service Youth Community Service Award
Each year, the Clements International Award for Community Service is presented to Foreign Service teenagers who have been nominated from around the world for their community service projects. The award honors teenagers who have demonstrated outstanding volunteer efforts either in community service or in service to their peers while facing the challenges of growing up in an internationally mobile lifestyle. Two awards are presented to Foreign Service teenagers for their work either overseas or in the United States. First place award winners each receive a savings bond compliments of Clements International Insurance.
