Pilot Pen is once again looking for true Overachievers—adults and students who go above and beyond to make their communities and our world better for us all. Whether it’s an individual going above and beyond their 9-to-5 job to improve their community, a student making a difference outside their classroom or another noble effort, we want to hear about it and give these Overachievers the recognition they deserve.

That’s why we’re hosting the $100,000 G2 Overachievers Grant and the $15,000 G2 Overachievers Student Grant. Both grants will be awarded to outstanding overachievers who go above and beyond to improve the lives of others.

The 2023 $15,000 G2 Overachievers Student Grant will be awarded by Pilot Pen in recognition of an outstanding student who rises beyond the level of their everyday studies and utilizes their learnings to positively impact the world around them. Entrants for this award will also need to submit 1,000 - 2,000 handwritten words explaining how they or the person they’re nominating make a difference in the world around them and why they deserve to be recognized for these efforts.

Whether it’s an individual working outside of their 9-to-5 to improve their community or a student making a difference outside their classroom. That’s why we host the $100,000 G2 Overachievers Grant and the $15,000 G2 Overachievers Student Grant.
