Mountain Brook Girl Earns President's Award


Riva, a sophomore at Mountain Brook High School, recently earned a President’s Volunteer Service Award as part of the Prudential Spirit of Community Awards on behalf of President Barack Obama. 

Riva’s Girl Scout experience has given her many opportunities to give back to her community. She has worked at Rocky Mountain Day Camp for several years, worked at Service Unit weekends, volunteered at Girl Scout Word Thinking Day programs, helped with recruitment, and has aided in program delivery in the Girl Scouts’ Hispanic Initiative.

Riva is the daughter of Judy and James of Mountain Brook.

The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards program recognizes young people across America for outstanding community service activities.
