Nearly 2 years ago I virtually met a young entrepreneur who had big ambitions. Twitter is a great place to meet people, and that is another blog post!

 I made the choice to get to know him and see if I could help him along on his already successful journey.  I knew that helping him would help me and we now act as mutual mentors helping eachother make decisions and encouraging ideas.

All the time I have known Jamie I knew that at some point I would be nominating Jamie for the JCI Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World (JCI TOYP) Program and I wanted to see him walk the walk rather than just talk the talk.   

Well as I mentioned above Jamie and I now mentor each other and I have seen him walk the walk many time, putting in the work, knowing where he is going and making an opportunities where others fear to even look let alone walk.

So back in May 2012 I downloaded the application forms asked Jamie to fill out the basics, and set to work writing an application to see if other feel (as I do) that he truly is one of the JCI Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World.

Yesterday I received the email informing us that Jamie has made it through to the next round where the final 20 are again judged by a panel, but also voted for by the public.

This is where you can help.
