Do you know an Amazing Kid?

Do you know a young person who goes above and beyond? A student who puts the needs of others before themselves, or someone who has overcome hardship but still perseveres to make a difference in their community?

If so, please nominate them today as one of our 2024 Amazing Kid honorees!

This will be the 11th year that the Pamplin Media Group has honored outstanding kids from our coverage areas from across the state and featured them in a special section that honors what they do to make our communities a better place to live.

Since 2014, the Pamplin Media Group has honored nearly 300 Amazing Kids inspiring others by their amazing example. Now, it’s time to do it again.

The Amazing Kids special section will be inserted into all Pamplin Media Group weekly newspapers in May. It will also be shared online and through our weekly email newsletters, collectively reaching more than 1.2 million readers. So yes, being named as one Pamplin Media Group’s Amazing Kids is a big deal.

The deadline for nominations is April 5.

While the nominee may be skilled in academic studies, sports, dance, music or other disciplines, community service will be one of the primary criteria we’ll consider.

Nominees can be enrolled as a student at a private, public or charter school, or be home-schooled, but they must be in elementary, middle or high school and they must live within one of the Pamplin Media Group’s coverage areas.
