Handwritten nominations for $100,000 G2 Overachievers Grant and $15,000 G2 Overachievers Student Grant to be accepted through Dec. 31, 2022.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Nov. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pilot Corporation of America (Pilot Pen) is searching for everyday heroes who give back to their community in unique and impactful ways to celebrate and recognize through its G2 Overachievers Grants. One 2022 $100,000 G2 Overachievers Grant and one 2022 G2 Overachievers $15,000 Student Grant will be awarded to exceptional individuals who go beyond their everyday jobs and responsibilities to make the world a better place.

Ariann Langsam, Vice President of Marketing for Pilot Pen, announces Beth Ann Fawcett as 2021 G2 Overachievers Grant winner on The Kelly Clarkson Show.

"Each year, Pilot looks to identify overachievers who are going above and beyond their nine to five roles to create a real difference in the lives of others. They're serving a cause completely in their free time, and often sacrificing their own needs, and lots of sleep, to do it," said Ariann Langsam, Vice President of Marketing for Pilot Pen. "We've found that G2 is the pen that overachievers gravitate towards because it's the longest writing and can keep up with all the amazing things they're doing. So, it's fitting that G2 honors and rewards those who are unstoppable in their pursuits to create positive change."

If you or someone you know is making measurable strides to improve the lives of others, share their story in 1,000 to 2,500 handwritten words, expressing how they're making a significant difference in the world around them. Submissions will be accepted on the G2 Overachievers Grant website through December 31, 2022.

Overachievers know that to reach their goals, it's essential to have the right tools. The Pilot G2, America's number one selling pen*, is smooth-writing, comfortable to hold and proven to be the longest-lasting gel ink pen**. With 4 point sizes and over 30 colors to choose from, G2 gives you the power to rule over what you write.
