Over $210,000 in scholarships awarded.
About This Issue:
Every vote you cast directly supports teen scholarships, magazine production, and our nonprofit partners.
The teens in Issue 105 are athletes, artists, scholars, and changemakers.
They are not waiting to lead. They are leading now.
Every teen featured here earned their spot — and every vote cast here means something real.
Each vote = $5 - supporting teen scholarships, magazine production, and youth leadership initiatives.
Your vote doesn't just move them up a leaderboard — it funds their education, validates their character in print, and gives them a credential that follows them into every college application, scholarship essay, and job interview for the rest of their lives.
Important Dates:
Winners will be announced on September 30.
The printed issue releases October 31, 2026.
Purchase links will be emailed to all featured participants and posted here once available.
Important Information:
The Icon teen with the most votes at the end of the contest is featured on the cover and receives the big scholarship.
Scholarship eligibility: Teens must be ages 13–19 and reside in the USA.
