I have been wanting to talk about funding and grants in my blog for many weeks as it is an area that I feel very strongly about and feel that my thoughts need to made public on. This is a long rant so bear with me as I think many of you will agree with what I have to say.

Over the last few years we have watched as young people have been thrust in to the limelight only to fall off the rails. This is not a new phenomenon but with the intensity of media scrutiny increasing every day the fall from grace of these celebrities has garnered more column inches in newspapers and websites as well as airtime on TV and radio shows than ever before. The main three celebrity names people will be synonymous with are Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.

Hey Youth Venturers!

One of the next steps while starting and building your Venture is to seek out opportunities to financially support your team and its mission. Though we at Youth Venture give you a head start, in order to make sure your Venture stays afloat and continues to be successful, eventually you and your team members will need to look for grants and other funding opportunities.
