Your passion deserves more than a school club or volunteer hours.
It deserves to become something real - and truly yours.

The Social Impact Catalyst is your launchpad to create something powerful:
A student-run organization. A nonprofit. A community initiative.
And you won’t be doing it alone.

We’ll match you 1-on-1 with mentors from the world’s top universities - like Brown, Oxford, Johns Hopkins, and more - who will help you turn your passions into real, organized, and high-impact youth-led ventures.

🚀 What Makes This Program So Different?

Other students join clubs.
You’ll build an impactful one.

You’ll get:

✅ 1-on-1 Mentorship from students who have already launched their own successful organizations
✅ Step-by-step support to launch or scale your own club, nonprofit, campaign, or youth-led initiative
✅ A final showcase to present what you’ve built
✅ A resume-ready and college-ready story that stands out from the crowd
✅ A community of changemakers who are just as driven as you are

This is for students who are ready to stop asking for permission - and start leading.
