Seeking excellence is an attitude. It is not enough to have talent and be smart. It is hard work and perseverance that make you shine.

 

These awards publicly recognize excellence, effort and a mindset of continuous improvement. We seek to celebrate academic achievement to serve as motivation to continue to strive and grow for years to come.  

​

The students will donate half of the prize to a non-profit organization of their choice. We hope that this act of solidarity will become a habit in the future.

 

Many of these students are called to be leaders, stand out in society and be an example to friends in their communities. And their achievements should also include giving back to society, with time, knowledge and economic contributions, so that it serves as an example for many others who will look at them as role models.
