For youth-led projects...
Peace Child International has created the “Be the
Change!” Programme (BTC!) to support young people under 25-years with small grants of USD$500 - USD$1,000 to get involved in local community action and development projects.
Projects must be genuinely youth-led with two experienced and committed adult mentors, and benefit the community rather than an
individual need. All projects must have measures of achievement (indicators) by which projects may be evaluated. Projects may be either income-generating (funds to start up a small business and creating jobs) or it can be non-income generating (for health, education, environmental clean-up or community improvement) social projects.
