become a social innovator
Sparkseed offers a comprehensive program for collegiate social innovators. This program is designed to hone your entrepreneurial skills, expand your network, and provide the support you need to make your venture a success.
Sparkseed Innovators receive:
- Seed money - up to $11,000
- Web tools - web site, graphic design, phone lines, & more; worth $10,000
- Mentoring & consulting to generate income, attract media attention, and scale ventures
- Access to the Sparkseed network
What else you need to know...
- Applicants must be undergraduate students in the U.S.
- You can apply individually or with a partner.
- This is not simply a grant; this is a social innovator development program. While we do provide seed funding to our social innovators, you should not apply for this reason. The training, tools, and connections that we offer are the real value-adds.
