Nominate A Teen For A Heart Of Pelham (HOP) Award!

The Heart of Pelham (HOP) Awards are youth recognition awards given to Pelham teens who exemplify character traits such as compassion, perseverance, kindness, determination, and integrity. Young people (grades 9-12) can be nominated by anyone in the community, which gives adults a chance to recognize them for what can often go unnoticed.

We will collect nominations through November 30, 2025, and awards will be given in January 2026. Each winner receives a certificate, gift card, and a few fun, sweet treats. Just as importantly they receive recognition of their impact to the community when we gather with friends and family at J Cafe for a casual yet meaningful ceremony. 

Tell a teen they matter and nominate them for a HOP Award! Click here for the brief form. It really does make a difference.
