Butte High student Mya Murphy was one of the youth winners.
“I love seeing how I can help people. It’s really important to me. I know that a lot of people aren’t able to with what their lives are like. Being able to show up for people like that really means a lot. I grew up in a very small household, and knowing I can help people like me when I was a kid, it’s a lot,” said Murphy.
All winners were nominated for this award by people in the community.
