THE BETTERMENT OF AMERICA’S YOUTH
We’re the United States Congress’ award program for young Americans. Our program fosters citizenship in youth ages 14 – 24 by encouraging personal goal-setting and community service.
The tenets of our program are Voluntary Public Service, Personal Development, Physical Fitness, and Expedition/Exploration.
This unique public-private partnership does not receive any federal funding but relies on private donations from supporters like you. Whether it’s a one-time or recurring monthly gift, a contribution of $25 or $5,000, your donation ensures the continuation of this important youth development program for years to come.
The Congressional Award is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization. All contributions are fully tax deductible. Receipts are provided upon payment.

Thank you to all of our young artists who submitted drawings, painting, and photos for our calendar! Artists whose pieces are featured in the 2025 Calendar are listed below.
