Target & Tiger Woods Foundation Grants
Character Development, Volunteer Service, & Career Exploration
The Target and Tiger Woods Foundation Start Something Program is a free program for youth that addresses three priorities: character development, volunteer service and career exploration. The goal of the program is to help improve students' self-esteem, goal-setting ability, and attitudes toward learning.
Using materials provided at the Target Web site, teachers will talk with students about being a team player, help them think about what they'd like to do in their lives, and help them carry out a Volunteer Service project. After completing the program, student can apply for a Start Something Individual Grant to help them pursue their dreams. Students must be 8 to 17 to apply.
The applications deadline is January 1, 2007.
