Subject: Forty UNDER 40 Prince George’s County 2017: The List we’ve all been waiting on…

PRESS RELEASE:  April 1, 2017
Six years ago, the Prince George’s County Social Innovation Fund (PGCSIF) launched Forty UNDER 40 Prince George’s as a pilot effort to identify the best and brightest in Prince George’s County across a range of sectors and categories. We were confident that the County was ripe with exceptional talent and we simply wanted to offer a hometown recognition of excellence, youth, and leadership. Every year since, the numbers of nominations have increased and the competition has become even more intense. This year was no different. 

Individuals and organizations from across the County and the region nominate candidates for consideration. A review panel carefully assesses each nomination on the basis of character, accomplishment, and commitment to service. It was not an easy job – but we did it!

On behalf of the PGCSIF Advisory Board in partnership with the Community Foundation, we are pleased to acknowledge THE LIST – Forty UNDER 40 Prince George’s 2017.
