Each of our recipients has been actively involved in their schools and their leadership qualities will help them adapt now and in the future,' said Cindy Durand, director of public affairs at Cellcom.

Recipients were selected on the basis of community involvement, academic record, potential to succeed, leadership and participation in school activities, honors, work experience and an essay on community impact.
