City Year is a nonprofit organization built on the belief that young people can change the world. The organization unites individuals of all backgrounds for a demanding year of full-time community service. As tutors, mentors, and role models, City Year corps members make a difference in the lives of children and transform schools and neighborhoods. In addition, not only can they earn an educational award of $4,725 that can be used to further their education, pay back school loans, or attend trade school, but they also aquire, develop, and implement viable leadership and networking skills that enhance the communities that we serve. In one day a corps member can go from tutoring a kid in East Harlem to engaging community stakeholders in Bed-Stuy to helping facilitate a fundraiser in Chelsea literally. CYNY is only one of 17 City Year sites located across the country. To find out more, visit www.cityyear.org.

Everyone of ages 13-20; ever wanted to start a legacy that was a sustainable and a socially conscious venture.

Well today may be your lucky day,

with 1,000$ in seed grant money, you can start a venture that can help change the world by researching youth venture. A non for profit that like to give a 1,000$ in seed funding for a venture of your choosing.

There is only one catch, your venture must! be sustainable. Meaning anyone can join and build from where you left off.
