#RisingYouth empowers young people, ages 15-30 to imagine ideas that can support their local community and helps them put their
ideas into action through grants of $250, $750, or $1500. Funding can be used to support ideas implemented by one or two youth, for
instance; community events or gatherings. Groups of youth can also work together on bigger ideas, such as building a community garden,
distributing care packages, or hosting a community photo and video exhibit featuring traditional knowledge shared by community elders.
