SpeakUp projects

What are SpeakUp projects?

SpeakUp projects give students a chance to get involved in making their school a better place to learn. This is your chance to SpeakUp and take action on the issues that are important to you. Tell us your great idea for a project for a chance to receive a grant. You will lead your project with the support of your project team and an adult project facilitator.

Here are a few examples of projects that students have created:

  • Students hosted a full-day equity conference as a way to engage students and promote equity education.
  • Established environmental clubs to encourage students to reuse and recycle.
  • A book from a collection of stories, poems, and journal entries written by young women enrolled in an alternative program.

This is your chance to take action and create the changes you want to see in your school or community!
