Description

Waco Under 40, with presenting sponsor Bird Kultgen Ford, celebrates dynamic young leaders under the age of 40, from McLennan County. Nominees represent not only the young leaders who demonstrate a tremendous positive impact in their respective industries, but who also go beyond the call of duty by volunteering their personal time to give back to the community and strive to make Waco a better place to live. 

The Waco Under 40 Celebration is a rare opportunity for the best and brightest from a diverse group of professions to gather and receive much-deserved recognition. Join us as we celebrate both the nominees and  honorees for Waco Under 40. The celebration will take place at Bird Kultgen Ford from 5-7 pm on Thursday, November 3, 2022.
