Hearts of Gold

We are all captivated by the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in PyeongChang this month. Athletes of the highest caliber, from every pocket of the earth, have convened at the world's biggest stage to put their specialized skills and years of preparation to the test.

A great deal of emotion and patriotism is felt by these countrymen and women, with each hoping to represent their nation with pride and produce important results.

Inspirational. Fearless. Champion. Hero. These words are synonymous with Olympic athletes.

Like the Olympians we'll come to know and adore over the course of the month, Congressional Award youth participants have a story to tell. Each are champions in their own right. They bring pride to their communities by serving others, setting ambitious goals, and embarking on grand adventures.

This month, starting with the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, we will be sharing stories of Congressional Award participants with #HeartsOfGold.

In turn, we hope that our supporters have #HeartsOfGold and empower our youth champions with a gift to our charity.
