For our youth participants age 8-21, this breakout session will turn into a Giving Circle! There, the youth will be introduced to the grant making cycle and learn from each other’s experiences using different processes. From there, they will work together to create criterion for reviewing the finalists’ proposals to help determine the final grants. More details about grant applicants coming soon!
