BCA Students Awarded Prudential Spirit of Community Award

Two Bergen County Academies students, Wooseok Kwon of Fort Lee and Jae Lee of Cresskill have been honored for their exemplary volunteer service with a President’s Volunteer Service Award.

The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards Program granted the award, which recognizes those who have volunteered significant amounts of their time to serve their communities and their country. The Bergen County Academies nominated these students this fall in recognition of their volunteer service.

“The recipients of these awards demonstrate that young people across America are making remarkable contributions to the health and vitality of their communities.” said John Strangfeld, chairmen and CEO of Prudential Financial. “By recognizing these students and placing a spotlight on their volunteer activities, we hope to motivate others to consider how they can also contribute to their community.”
