Want to know more about service-learning?
We're fighting the No. 1 killer of teens.
That’s a staggering statistic we want to help change.
Sponsored by State Farm® and coordinated by the National Youth Leadership Council® (NYLC), Project Ignition returns for another exciting year!
What is Project Ignition? It’s a grant program that uses service-learning to help address teen driver safety issues.
Here’s our challenge to students in grades 9 through 12 and their teachers or advisors:
Work together to develop a campaign to address the issue of teen driver safety in your community.
How you choose to do that is completely up to you! With any service-learning project, the goal is to make an impact in your community in the most creative way possible. The only limit is your imagination.
Each year, schools whose campaigns are judged to be among the top 10 in the nation receive $5,000 to help cover expenses to come to The National Service-Learning Conference.
So, are you in? Check out the School Showcase for a glimpse of the creativity, passion, and power students bring to Project Ignition.
Come on — put your school in the driver’s seat for Project Ignition 2010-11. Help prove that what young leaders are learning in school can improve the world and even save lives!
