In order to encourage civic leadership behaviors, and to honor the historic success of student initiated service projects, this proposal includes funding for as many as 15 student led projects. These funds will also be allocated to support participation in national service days such as the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. Awards for Fall 2001 are contingent upon funding from the Corporation for National Service. The use of funds may include materials for mentoring and tutoring projects, admissions and transportation to special events for project participants, and support for training student and community project participants. Funds may not be used for stipends, equipment, or communication costs.
All proposals much indicate a dollar for dollar cash match of funds requested.
