This summer, Staples, Inc. will reward young people for bringing change to their communities.  Eight teams of young people  aged12 to 24 will win grant awards under the company’s annual Youth Social Entrepreneurship Competition.

And in the fall, the young grant winners will get to share their success at the first Youth Social Enterprise event in Washington, DC. Youth Venture, the event sponsor, is a U.S.-based global organization that supports teams of young social entrepreneurs with seed money, tools and a supportive community to young people who want to change their world.

You can learn more about the Staples Youth Social Entrepreneurship Grant program and apply HERE . Find out more about Youth Venture HERE.
