The Changemaker Challenge has two components. Students must participate in both elements in order to be eligible to compete for prize money.

 

October 4: Interactive Prep Workshop where students will build their public speaking confidence as we drill down on what social impact is and discuss practical strategies for maximizing impact. Students will learn and practice techniques for effective storytelling, crafting impactful and compelling messages, and confidently sharing their ideas. They will also have a chance to brainstorm pitch ideas and find partners if they choose.

 

October 7: Changemaker Challenge Day! Students will participate in a quick-pitch competition (90-second pitch), where they will share their concrete, actionable ideas for making a social impact.
