The CFGL Spirit of Service Contest
Summer 2023
About the Contest
The Center for Future Global Leaders in partnership with Elite Educational Institute wishes to empower students to serve their communities by funding outstanding passion projects.
Objective
Create a proposal for a service project that benefits your immediate and/or greater community.
Projects must be:
Achievable. Project timeline must have a realistic horizon that ends within 6 months.
Collaborative. Other students must be able to contribute to/join in your venture.
Measurable. There must be an objective measure of whether the project was “successful,” at least in carrying out its original purpose.
Helpful. The ultimate goal of each project must be to serve the public good.
Specific. Detail funds needed (up to $500) and how they would be used.
It would be great if projects were also:
Scalable. You could train someone else to do the same or similar project at a different CFGL chapter.
