The Coca-Cola Pay It Forward program provides opportunities to moms and teens.
Now through March 31, 2016, nominations can be submitted on Coke.com/PayItForward. The voting phase for contest finalists will take place between Saturday, June 4 and Friday, June 17, 2016.
Last year, the Coca-Cola awarded 22 teens with a $5,000 scholarship and an invitation for them and their mom/guardian to attend the Coca-Cola Pay It Forward Academy. Continuing that tradition, this year’s Coca-Cola Pay It Forward program will award up to 25 teens a $5,000 scholarship and opportunity for them and their mom/guardian to attend this year’s Coca-Cola Pay It Forward Academy. Moms, dads, relatives, teachers and neighbors will have another chance to nominate an outstanding high school teen (grades 9-12) for a unique educational and mentoring experience and a $5,000 scholarship. The Academy will take place Thursday, July 21 – Sunday, July 24, 2016, in Atlanta, Ga.
