Are You a Changemaker? Teens Make a Difference With Youth Venture
As a teen one of the amazing programs that helped me start my organization for kids was Youth Venture. They supplied me with a grant, and much support to get my art enrichment program off the ground, and they do the same for young people around the country. Check out the videos below of young venturers form Youth Venture’s recent summit.
Youth Venture is an international community of young people who are powerful now, changemakers now. Youth Venture inspires and invests in teams of young people to create and launch their own sustainable, community-benefiting ventures. Youth Venture then connects them into a global movement of young changemakers who are together redefining the youth years as a time of leadership and positive social change. This is the foundation of an Everyone a Changemaker world – the key factor for success in every part of society. To learn more how you can get a grant to help your community visit www.GenV.net.
