Youth of the Year

On Friday, February 5, 2010 Ali Sayedsarwar was named as the 2010 Utah Youth of the Year! Ali escaped war-torn Afghanistan with his sister and her two young children six years ago. He will begin his senior year at West High School this fall where he is enrolled in Honors and Advance Placement classes. He is planning to attend the University of Utah to pursue a career in Business and Architecture. Ali is an active member of the Capitol West Boys & Girls Club, where he is a positive role model and mentor.

As part of this achievement, he will receive a scholarship that will provide him $1,000 to further his education. Ali was also awarded a free trip to Disneyland in Anaheim, California to participate in the Pacific Region Youth of the Year Competition.We are very proud to have our very own Ali Sayedsarwar selected as Utah Youth of the Year, and we anxiously look forward to his success as he advances to the next level of competition this summer.
