This “revolution of service,” and the youth’s commitment to be involved and become changemakers are at the core of the recently launched Epic Youth Leadership Awards (EYLA) under the prestigious and long-running Gawad Geny Lopez Jr. Bayaning Pilipino Awards. The EYLA is a new search by ABS-CBN Corporation, ABS-CBN International and UGAT Foundation, Inc., conducted in the U.S. and Canada, that recognizes and awards a Filipino generation of heroes for the times who are determined to make a difference in the world through their youth-serving efforts that address specific areas of service identified below:
AREAS OF SERVICE

The search is open to groups, organizations, clubs, and societies whose membership and leadership are composed of a majority whose ages are 38 years old and below, and where majority of members have Filipino lineage.
$3000 and a trip back to the motherland goes to the top winner; 2nd prize is $2000 and 3rd prize is $1000.
