Project Report | Mar 5, 2025
Create global change

By Maisie Mayne | Fundraising intern

The future of our world depends on passionate young leaders. But too often, talented individuals with the drive to tackle global challenges are held back by financial barriers. Without access to international experiences, these young changemakers miss out on vital opportunities to learn, develop, and amplify their voices on the global stage.

 

At our charity, we believe that no one should be excluded from making a difference—which is why we are committed to empowering the next generation of global ambassadors. Through this project, we provide scholarships to young leaders (aged 15-26), giving them the chance to participate in international conferences, leadership programs, and experiences that will help them drive change in their communities and beyond.

 

The Challenge

 

Many young leaders have the passion and drive to make a difference but lack the financial means to access global opportunities

Without international exposure, their voices and solutions remain unheard

The world needs a new generation of changemakers to help achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030

 

Our Solution

 

Through our scholarship program, we:

Provide financial support for selected young leaders to attend international conferences and experiences

Equip them with the skills, networks, and knowledge to tackle key global issues

Ensure they give back—all scholarship recipients enter a re-entry program, sharing their learnings locally and acting as ambassadors for change

Encourage environmental responsibility, requiring all recipients to fundraise to offset their carbon footprint

 

The Long-Term Impact

 

By supporting this project, you are:

Investing in future leaders who will drive progress on the SDGs

Creating a ripple effect, as these young ambassadors will bring knowledge, inspiration, and solutions back to their communities

Helping tackle multiple global issues, from climate change and gender equality to poverty and quality education

 

How You Can Help

 

We need £11,992 to continue unlocking opportunities for young leaders around the world.

 

Your donation will:

Sponsor a future changemaker and give them the opportunity of a lifetime

Support global collaboration—bringing together young leaders to drive solutions

Help us build a more inclusive and sustainable world
