experience a financial burden experiencing the academic event.
If you are nominating more than 1 student, you don't have to
sign all 20 different forms but send the signed
recommendation form with the nomination list
directly to the GLEC Secretariat at glec@hopetofuture.org.

primary method for contacting students and teachers
regarding the competition, please guide
any students not to use more than one email address.

end up there.
