The Cause

The goal of the Champion Project Fund is enhancing student leadership. This projects offers financial grants for student-generated short term projects. These projects demonstrate their social justice values, while developing their leadership, communication, and team-building skills. Projects vary from reading to seniors, volunteering in their community, or even creating an outdoor community garden. Whatever the project, it creates student Champions.

Who Will it Benefit?

The program will benefit the kids directly, along with teachers, staff and the broader community (seniors, families in need).
