Congratulations to school Prefect Joel Fleet-Stephenson, who was selected as the Palmerston North winner of the Trustpower Youth Community Spirit Award for 2016.
In 2016 Joel created and led the Palmerston North Boys’ High School World Vision Committee. This group has actively fund raised for World Vision during terms one and two, and in excess of $12,000 has been raised. As part of this Joel organised a ‘Fight for Syria’ boxing event that raised in excess of $8,000.
Part of the prize for winning this award was $250 to be donated to a charity of Joel’s choice. Joel presented this money to Rebecca Platt from World Vision.
