The Contribution Project gives you $400 to make the world around you a better place in a way that you’re passionate about.

Are you a young person aged 14-25 living in the 20-county area surrounding Cincinnati (including in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana!), and want to make a positive difference in your community?

If the answer to both of those is yes, you should apply to The Contribution Project! Thanks to a generous grant from our partners at Interact for Health, we have 50 spots available specifically for young people living in this area for the Fall 2025 cycle.

Apply to the Contribution Project between September 8 - 30, 2025.
