The Power to Change the Future is in Your Hands.

Over a decade ago, McDonald’s® and the 365Black platform launched the 365Black Awards to celebrate the pride, heritage and achievements of African Americans year-round. In honoring individuals who make a difference in their respective communities, the McDonald’s 365Black Awards is designed to empower and inspire others to do the same.

Past youth honorees include exceptional candidates like teen entrepreneur Leanna Archer, junior philanthropist Charles Orgbon III, teen author and advocate Mary-Pat Hector and teen prodigy of the medical field Tony Hansberry II.

This year, we want you to join us and help identify young men and women who are making impressive contributions by nominating them for the Community Choice Youth Award. If you know a phenomenal young candidate between the ages of 13 – 18 making a difference in our community, sign them up! Two candidates will be honored at the 365Black Award show in New Orleans on July 5th. Additionally, each will receive a $10,000 scholarship to help further their education.
