Amelia
Vestar Branch 2025-26 Youth of the Year
Amelia, 17, first walked into the Vestar Boys & Girls Club seven years ago feeling unsure of where she belonged. Today, she’s a leader, a mentor, a straight-A student, and someone who turns setbacks into fuel. Her story isn’t about one life-changing moment—it’s about thousands of small ones. About finding belonging, discovering her voice, and building the confidence to shape her own future. From Smart Girls to Keystone President, from shy newcomer to empowered role model, Amelia proves the Club is more than a place to go after school. It’s the hero she didn’t know she needed.
