Please nominate a deserving young person TODAY at v.detherightthinginc org!

As a DTRT Top 10 award winner last year, Ronald received our British Airways trip to t_ondon and our grand prize of DTRT Student of the Year in the high school category. So, what did he do to accomplish this you say? Well, it's more like what he didn't do. He didn't throw in the towel on life when his older brother and role model was murdered. He didn't drop out of school and turn to addiction like his father. What he did do was work hard and rise above it. Ronald is now poised to enter the police academy so he can continue to do the right thing! Welcome to the next Page of your life Ronald!
