Details:
With the generous support of the Sodexo Stop Hunger Foundation, YSA is offering project grants to youth changemakers—aged 5 to 25—to lead awareness, direct service, advocacy, and philanthropic projects that focus on ending childhood hunger in their communities.
This year, youth may apply for grants of either $250 or $500 depending on the number of youth who will be participating as volunteers (project planners, project leaders, and day-of volunteers). $250 grantees will be required to engage at least 25 other youth as volunteers while $500 grantees have a 50 youth volunteer requirement.
What YSA is looking for?
- Proposed projects must be youth-led and focus on addressing childhood hunger;
- Projects must take place during the Sodexo Servathon (April 1-May 31, 2024), with some activity on Global Youth Service Day (April 26-28, 2024) strongly encouraged;
- Projects may take place in schools, colleges/universities, afterschool programs, youth organizations, nonprofits, or faith-based organizations;
- Youth applicants should engage youth not typically asked to serve (including, but not limited to youth with disabilities, youth who are struggling in school, and youth from low-income or underserved communities) as volunteers;
- Youth applicants must live in the United States, and activities must benefit children and families in the United States.
