| Pay-It-Forward: Student Philanthropy Initiative |
The Pay-It-Forward initiative gives Nonprofit Leadership students a chance to be part of grant selection process. Each Spring, students in SNLO distribute a grant application, review the applicants and choose an area nonprofit organization to receive the gift. The process is a great learning experience, from gaining understanding of the grant process to learning more about the nonprofit organizations in the Valley. |
