AlreadyChosen is now accepting teen nominations for our Dear Future Me Teen Recognition.
We are searching for teens ages 13–19, who demonstrate REAL leadership.
Not popularity.
Not perfection.
Leadership.
We want to hear about teens who:
• Lead by example
• Push through difficult situations
• Encourage others
• Carry responsibility at a young age
• Continue to shine despite hardship
• Use their pain to inspire people around them
Has this teen overcome:
• bullying
• loss
• depression
• anxiety
• homelessness
• family struggles
• abuse
• rejection
• health challenges
• peer pressure
• life changing obstacles
…yet still continues to rise?
THAT is leadership too.
Some of the strongest leaders are teens who had to survive things people never knew they were facing.
If you know a teen with a powerful story, or if YOU are that teen, we want to hear from you.
Please submit:
• Teen’s name
• Age
• Photo
• Their story and why they should be considered
Send all nominee requests to:
[email protected]
Selected teens will be recognized at the Dear Future Me Brunch on August 22, 2026, where our Girl Winner and Boy Winner will receive an amazing gift and special recognition.
Deadline to Apply: July 15, 2026
Your story matters.
Your leadership matters.
Your life matters.
You are already chosen.
Out of state submission is welcome as long as you are willing to travel.
