April 20, 2017, Cassidy Tshimbalanga receives Yale University Ebenezer Bassett Award for community engagement.
The Ebenezer Bassett award honors emerging leaders who have distinguished themselves through a record of creative leadership and public service, academic distinction, interdisciplinary problem solving, and experience addressing societal issues.
The faculty in Yale’s Center for the Study of Race, Indigeneity, and Transnational Migration (RITM) established the award to honor young leaders who, like Ebenezer Bassett in the 19th century, bring under-recognized perspectives to the public sphere, think deeply about our collective futures, and exemplify intelligence and courage as they work on behalf of others.
The award committee received more than 800 applications from 46 states, the District of Columbia, and military dependents. https://news.yale.edu/2017/04/20/new-yale-award-honors-20-high-school-juniors-nationwide-community-engagement
