[Veronica Atkins]

This is an online contest that generationOn is hosting from now through July 9^th!

It’s called the Power of Youth Contest and it calls on young people from 13-18 years of age to share a photo and a one-sentence description of their community service online. The young person who gets the most votes for their entry will win an all-expenses-paid trip to the Variety Power of Youth event in Los Angeles on July 27, 2013.

Variety's Power of Youth event brings together the top young talent in Hollywood, encouraging young people everywhere to get involved in philanthropic and humanitarian causes. This year’s event will celebrate Jake T. Austin, Tyler Posey, Nina Dobrev and Abigail Breslin for their contributions to philanthropic or charitable causes.
