The Michigan Chronicle is now accepting nominations for the 2024 40 Under 40 awards.

The nominations are open for 40 individuals who exemplify the essence of change-makers, movers, and shakers within our community.
Local professionals who inspire others through their vision, leadership, exceptional achievements, and unwavering commitment to community service are recognized by this award.

They are the backbone of our society, pushing forward economic empowerment, diversity, and progress within religious and educational organizations, as well as political and community service sectors.
In 2024, we will induct a new class of honorees into the exclusive society of professionals who have previously received the distinction of becoming a 40 Under 40 honoree. These individuals are not only champions of their fields but also pillars of their communities. They represent the very best of what it means to be a leader and a role model, inspiring others to follow in their footsteps and contribute to the betterment of our society.
We call on the community to nominate those who deserve this recognition based on the following criteria:
- African American professional, executive, or business owner
- Proven success within their profession or industry
- Positive role model whose contributions encourage others
- Active in community service or organizational involvement
Nominations close on July 31 at 11:59 p.m., so it is crucial to act swiftly to ensure that deserving candidates are considered. This event is not just an award ceremony; it is a celebration of true talent, dedication, and the hard work that often goes unnoticed. It is a moment to uplift and honor those who are tirelessly working to make Southeast Michigan a better place for all.
Each year, the Michigan Chronicle’s 40 Under 40 awards serve as a powerful reminder of the incredible potential within our community. The honorees are individuals who have not only achieved remarkable success in their careers but have also made significant contributions to society. They are involved in a wide array of sectors, including business, education, healthcare, arts, and public service, reflecting the diverse talents and passions that drive our community forward.
