The Foundation for MetroWest is delighted to launch our first Summer Institute for Youth Leadership, and applications are available now! Apply early as spots are limited! This two-day program is designed for high school students (rising freshman through seniors).
During the program, participants will learn about the importance of becoming actively involved in their own community, discover a keen awareness of their own potential, and develop the skills necessary to become successful leaders. Participants will learn how to evaluate local nonprofit organizations and work together to award a grant to the nonprofit of their choice. In addition to grantmaking and philanthropy education, guest speakers will attend each session to teach a variety of life skills, from creating a resume to balancing a checkbook, and learning to work effectively as a team.
