Student Leadership Initiative

Overview:
California Campus Compact, with support from the Corporation for National and Community Service, Learn and Serve America Higher Education, is pleased to announce the third phase of our Social Innovation Generation: Student Leadership Initiative. This 18-month grant program encourages and supports change-making student-led service and service-learning projects that will not only aid those hardest hit by California’s economic crisis, but also help California emerge from the crisis with a more innovative, green and sustainable economic future.

Up to eight successful applicants will be selected to receive one subgrant each of up to $10,000. The grant requires a 150 percent match (cash or in-kind). The grant period is from January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012.

Only one proposal per campus will be accepted. To be eligible to receive a grant, student leaders must work with their service-learning or student affairs center. Proposals must be submitted to California Campus Compact by a campus’s service-learning director or student affairs director.

Deadline to Submit: October 27 at 4 p.m.
The proposal deadline is Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 4 p.m. Please note that current California Campus Compact subgrantees are not eligible to apply.
