Athens Academy student earns national community service impact award

Athens Academy is pleased to announce that sophomore Emiliana Korin is being recognized by the United Nations Association of the USA (UNA-USA) and InnerView in the seventh Annual Community Service Impact Awards.

Emiliana is being honored as an Ambassador for completing over 100 hours of community service during the 2023-24 school year--an amazing accomplishment! She also received special recognition as a “Zero Hero” for her focus on Zero Hunger and Zero Waste.

This program, open to all U.S. students, has been designed to connect student community service activities, skill development, and commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to transform our world. The Kroger Co. is presenting the fifth annual Zero Hero Awards to students for taking action to help create communities free of hunger and waste.

“High school students have a strong perspective on the most challenging issues and needs facing our communities. These awardees exemplify young leadership, harnessing their passion and skills to enact positive change in their communities and beyond,” says Kristine Sturgeon, CEO of InnerView Technologies. “We feel privileged to work alongside these change-makers daily, supporting their journey, unlocking opportunities, and commemorating their achievements.”
