'Someone who plays a trumpet at a young age might play because of the passion they have for the instrument and maybe it's because at a young age their parents put a trumpet in their hands and told them 'you're going to play.' The same thing goes for philanthropy. In my case, my grandmother always taught me that it was better to give than to receive and that mentality stuck with me.' -Isaac Solano, North High School, 2008 Winner of Outstanding Youth in Philanthropy Award"
