The City of Portland and the Associated Students of Portland Community College are excited to announce that applications for grant money are now available for youth to create a project and improve their communities! Please help spread the word.
$10,000 is available for community-based projects initiated, designed, and run by youth 21 and under. The Youth Action Grants Program will provide grants of up to $1,000 to youth or youth groups who want to take actions that help make Our Bill of Rights: Children + Youth a reality.
For more details, check out 2013 YOUTH ACTION GRANTS PROGRAM.
The application deadline is Thursday, February 21, 2013, so do not delay.
