Special Olympics/YSA: Get Into It Grants

Special Olympics is partnering with Youth Service America to offer Get Into It grants, which bring together students of all abilities to fight childhood obesity in their schools and communities. The Get Into It curriculum helps to develop a service-learning program that gives youth the opportunity to make a change by creating and implementing local, hands-on programs to fight childhood obesity. Get Into It grant projects launch on Spread the Word to End the Word Day (March 2, 2011) and culminate on Global Youth Service Day (April 15-17, 2011). Maximum award: $1,000. Eligibility: teams from all 50 states and the District of Columbia are eligible to apply; each team must comprise a teacher and a unified pair of students (one with and one without an intellectual disability). Deadline: January 19, 2011.
