Many Americans are seeking better wellness options in their communities, so Amway Global and YMCA of the USA have teamed up to reward teens who are making a difference on this front, from setting up after-school walking groups and fitness activities to advocacy for healthier food options in their schools.

A Teen Wellness Leader from each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia will be selected to receive a $1,000 scholarship for further education plus a $1,000 donation toward his or her local YMCA. Through Nov. 16, 2008 , anyone can nominate a teen who is making a difference in their community. Go to www.inspirewellness.com to nominate a teen and for further details and official rules.
