The World Affairs Council of Dallas/Fort Worth recognized the ILTexas Garland High School JWAC Club with two prestigious awards this week.

Ayooluwa Joy Okunade was named a JWAC “20 Under 20” as part of the Global Young Leaders Program. This initiative honors 20 exceptional high school students under the age of 20 who are active in their local Junior World Affairs Council club (JWAC). 20 Under 20 brings a spotlight to young people in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex who consistently give back to their communities and exemplify what it means to be a global citizen.
