Small grants for youth activists, Oct. 1 deadline

[Laura Breeden]

I know the time is tight, but this sounds very interesting:

[from the Chronicle of Philanthropy, Sept. 18, 2003]

YouthActionNet Social Change Mini-Grants, sponsored by the International 
Youth Foundation.

These are small grants to youth leaders to support projects that promote 
social change and connect youths with local communities. Projects must 
have clearly defined goals and the potential for growth or further 
duplication.  Awards include $500 cash, a disposable camera for use in 
documenting projects for an online photo gallery, and the opportunity to 
participate in an online journal.

Open to individuals between the ages of 18 and 24.  Applicants must have a 
leadership role in a youth led project designed to create positive change 
in their community:
