Scholarship Description
MyImpact Challenge is a civic engagement contest hosted by the Bill of Rights Institute.
What is a Civic Engagement Contest?
Our civic engagement contest highlights students actively engaged in service, volunteerism, or entrepreneurship in their communities.
Submission is open to students ages 13-19 in all U.S. states, territories, and Armed Forces Schools Abroad.
To submit a project, you must describe an idea you envisioned and brought to life, centered around civic engagement. Each project must have three components:
A written essay to connect your project to our founding principles and virtues.
A project report.
And a video or series of photos highlighting the impact of your project on the community.
To enter, your project must have taken place between May 19, 2024 and May 18, 2025. Multi-year projects started before May 19, 2024 are eligible for entry if their activity continues after May 18, 2025. Projects that are ongoing as of May 18, 2025 are eligible for entry. Projects completed before May 19, 2024 are not eligible for entry.
