When we let youth lead, positive change happens.UR partners with Oakland Title 1 public elementary and middle schools where over 90% of UR's changemakers identify as racial or ethnic minorities and are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

The program is designed to provide the space and structure for participants to grow personally and act collectively to create positive change through planning and leading a community service project to address a need that they are passionate about impacting. | $111,813 | - |
