The Anne Frank Humanitarian Award Program, sponsored by the Hebrew Congregation of Chautauqua, is an outstanding opportunity to honor an exceptional, deserving upstander from your school who is making an extra effort to better the world. Students in Chautauqua County are passionate, respectful, empathetic and inclusive. Their contributions in our county range from feeding the hungry to supporting refugees who are new to the region. They have created nonprofits to address specific needs and raise funds for many charities and organizations throughout our community. They are kind to their classmates, and reach out to include those on the fringes. They are students who go above and beyond to help, advocate and serve.
