For the fifth year in a row, a Greenbelter has been named by the Prince George’s County Social Innovation Fund as one of its Forty Under 40. The stated aim of the Forty Under 40 program is “to highlight the brilliant young talent that lives in Prince George’s County and then connect them more deliberately to locally focused civic engagement opportunities.” Greenbelt has been well-represented by active community members. The inaugural year of the award, 2012, saw Aaron Marcavitch honored for his impact in business. Lauren Schrieber was recognized in 2013 for her contributions to arts and humanities, as Caitlin McGrath Honored As Part of Forty Under 40 by Kyla Hanington was Angella Foster the following year. The 2015 awards honored local chiropractor Rashida Cohen for her work in health and fitness. This year sees a Greenbelter again recognized in the field of arts and humanities, as Caitlin McGrath was acknowledged for her work with the Old Greenbelt Theatre. “It was exciting!” said McGrath of the honor. “It was nice to be recognized; we work hard every day to make this historic place (the theater) wonderful.”
