Teens Inciting Change Offering $700 Idea Grants for High School Youth With Ideas
Palatka, FL - Local teens with a passion for making a difference now have the chance to turn their ideas into action. Teens Inciting Change (TIC), an initiative of First Presbyterian Church of Palatka, is awarding $700 idea grants to seven students in grades 9 through 12 to develop and implement a project that enhances the quality of life in Palatka and Putnam County.
“We believe that young people in our community have great ideas about what will make their community better,” said Steve Crowley, who leads the initiative for the church. “Therefore, we have created a way for them to bring their vision, albeit in a small way, to life for all of our community residents.”
Students in grades 9 through 12 are encouraged to submit project proposals soon. Ideas will be accepted until all grants have been awarded. Whether it’s a service project, an arts or environmental initiative, or a social impact idea, TIC is committed to supporting youth-led solutions. A parent or guardian is required to sign the application as well as the developer to indicate they understand that the project is being submitted and they support their youth.
The proposals will be reviewed by a selection committee and seven projects will be selected. Recipients will be notified by text and or email. They may be required to meet with the selection committee to discuss their project and will be expected to make a public presentation about their project at an event when it is done.
Selected applicants will be notified via text and email. Apply today and see all the information at teensincitingchange.org and incite the change you want to see!
