YCC President, Chris Malagisi awards Patrick with the Young Conservative Leadership "Buckley Award"
Congratulations to Patrick Coyle, Young America's Foundation
vice president, for being awarded the Young Conservatives
Coalition's "Buckley Award" for making significant contributions to
the Conservative Movement. The award is in honor of the late
William F. Buckley Jr., who founded Young Americans for
Freedom in 1960 and is also the founder of National Review.
"This is the third year the YCC has given out this award to
deserving young professional conservatives who've advanced the
conservative cause and showed courage under fire," said YCC
President Chris Malagisi. "In a year of tough electoral challenges
these rising stars played a critical role in helping advance
conservatism. We are proud to honor these individuals for their
contributions to the Conservative Movement and the example they set
for others."
YAF alumnae Lila Rose and Katie Pavlich also received the Buckley Award.
