Global Action Awards Application
Welcome!
NetAid Global Action Awards honor high school students in the U.S. who have organized and led a project that has impacted people in poor countries, or raised awareness about global poverty in their own communities. The Awards celebrate young people who have shown great leadership in areas such as preventing HIV/AIDS, alleviating hunger and improving access to education.
