Brainerd / Baxter, MN. – Kids do some amazing things, whether it is raising money for a special cause, putting someone else’s needs in front of their own or volunteering their time toward community organizations. Over the past three years, Westgate Mall has had the honor of recognizing Crow Wing County area youth who have demonstrated care, compassion and concern for others through the Kids With Heart program. Beginning Valentine’s Day weekend, we encourage members of the community to nominate a child 18 and under who possesses these outstanding qualities.
The Kids With Heart program recognizes 10 exceptional young people who are passionate about volunteerism and community service. Last year, Westgate Mall was honored to recognize Ellen Whiteman as our grand-prize winner, who chose to donate the $500.00TO KINSHIP PARTNERS.
Through nominations by members of the community, a grand-prize winner and nine runners-up will be selected as Westgate Mall’s Kids With Heart award recipients; prizes include a $500 donation to the charity of the grand-prize winner’s choice and ten $100 shopping sprees. This year’s Kids With Heart program will kick off Valentine’s Day weekend and culminate during National Volunteer Month on April 24, 2010 with a recognition ceremony.
Do you have a friend who goes out of their way to make the world a better place? Why not nominate them for their loving, caring and kind qualities that make them stand apart?
Saturday, April 24, 2010 Westgate Mall will award 10 outstanding kids and young adults who bring these qualities to life in our community.
Who will you nominate?
