World Hunger Student Leadership Grants

Teams of students from public, private, and charter middle schools and high schools are invited to apply for grants of $1,000, $5,000 and $25,000 in support of projects which address a hunger-related issue.

Each team must include at least three students and a sponsoring teacher or adult adviser. The teams are challenged to create and execute a service-learning project  that attempts to solve a local, statewide, or national hunger-related issue; develop an action plan to achieve the goal; and demonstrate leadership.

These grants are administered by the USA TODAY Charitable Foundation and the Lift a Life Foundation, with support from the Yum Foundation, the Lead2Feed World Hunger Leadership Challenge.  Submissions will be accepted through April 17, 2015.  For full requirements, click here
