OUR GRANT OPPORTUNITIES: Youth Today’s grant listings are carefully curated for our subscribers working in youth-related industries. Subscribers will find local, state, regional and national grant opportunities.
THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Youth Development, Youth Leadership, Civic Engagement, Community, Social Justice
Deadline: Apr. 1, 2022
“The Call For Kindness offers young leaders the chance to participate in a dynamic leadership development fellowship and win up to $3,000 in funding for a project of their own that inspires kindness and strengthens their local, national, or global communities.
Over the past three years, we have created an incredible community of young changemakers, and we are excited to see what 2022 brings. Young people can submit new ideas or tell us how they want to expand an existing project, as individuals or in a group.
This year, we have expanded the age to 13-22 year olds and will award as many as 35 youth-led projects up to $3,000 each. The winners will join a strong community of Kindness Fellows from across the country to work together in a fellowship program that will support their project, and expand their leadership and life skills along the way.
Young people are invited to submit projects tackling anything from equity and social justice issues to building meaningful connections within their school or community. The 2022 special topic will consider ten projects specifically focused on mental health; we recognize the growing need to highlight this critical issue only amplified by the pandemic.”
Funder: Riley’s Way Foundation
Eligibility: Youth leaders ages 13-22. “Each project is required to have both a partner organization and an adult mentor. The partner organization will act as your fiscal sponsor and will receive the grant on your behalf. They must be a 501(c)(3), which means they can be either a non-partner organization or a school partner.”
Amount: Up to $3,000
