Do you know someone like Nicholas who’s between 8 and 22 years old and is also making a difference? If so, high five for keeping awesome company! Also, you can nominate them for a Peace First Prize. Five to 10 people will be selected for two-year $25,000 fellowships. It doesn’t take long to nominate someone, but it sure could make a big difference for the good work they’re doing.
