Campaign to raise money for youth-led civic action programs launches in Tulsa

(TULSA, Okla.) Tulsa Changemakers is launching their second annual $9.18 Campaign, where they are asking all supporters to donate at least $9.18 before 9/18. 

Money raised will empower over 350 students from 35+ schools across Tulsa Public and Union Public Schools to launch 70+ community impact projects.

For the last 5 years, Changemakers has been committed to supporting young people in identifying community strengths and challenges, listening for input from a broad range of stakeholders, and taking action. Past Changemaker projects include a peer-to-peer mentoring program spearheaded by a cohort at Springdale Elementary, a cultural diversity night at Hale High School, and a mental health support website at Tulsa Honor Academy.

Next year, over 350 youth from 35+ school sites will launch 70+ youth-led community impact projects across the city. Additionally, Tulsa Changemakers will launch a youth- led philanthropy program, pilot an intergenerational community organizing effort, and assist in the development of various youth voice initiatives with local organizations. 

Each donation of at least $9.18 brings us closer to a future where Tulsa is a model city for youth-driven impact!
