OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUTH

Hi, I'm Sophia. One of the biggest challenges young people face is getting a foot in the door. Too often, entry level roles ask for years of experience before you've had the chance to gain any. That's why I created OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUth - a monthly roundup of grants, jobs, programs and leadership opportunities. Because solving the planetary crisis will take all of us: artists, engineers, storytellers, scientists, entrepreneurs and changemakers. Good luck applying.
