The staff over at Community Board 7 is looking for local youths to nominate for the Yankees’ Youth Leadership Award, a $750 prize for  upstanding young Bronx residents doled out each year by the Yankees Community Council. The deadline is Oct. 31.

Each Bronx Community Board gets to submit the names of five nominees, and CB7 District Manager Fernando Tirado says they’ve yet to receive any applications. Applicants must reside within the district–for CB7 that means the neighborhoods of Bedford Park, Norwood, Fordham, Kingsbridge Heights and University Heights--and each youth selected is required to complete 50 hours of community service work.

Here’s a link to more details and an application form. For more info, contact Community Board 7 at (718) 933-5650.
