Young Pro. of the Month Nominations & Annual Certificate of Excellence

Philo4Thought celebrates the outstanding contributions of dedicated young professionals who strive to make a difference in the lives of those around them. Monthly recommendations are mailed to p4tinfo@gmail.com to recognize the Courage, Character & Commitment to Service of an active member in the Hellenic Community either in the US or Abroad.

At the conclusion of the year all those selected to be featured on our webpage are reviewed for consideration as recipients of our annual Certificate of Excellence, which is issued in collaboration with the New York State Assembly. The Award is indicative of the honoree's good character, determination to succeed, ability to manage his/her time and responsibilities, and commitment to lead and inspire others,
