Teen Social Venture Competition

I am excited about a current competition underway to fund social ventures founded by teens. This is a great way to capture the talented capable youth and give them the opportunity to apply themselves to improving the world. Establishing a life time of service to the needs of the poor, the abused, the hungry and the environment. The competition is the idea of Ashoka's Youth Venture and Best Buy. They are inviting teens from around the nation to select the winners. Visit http://www.GenV.net/bestbuy to cast your vote.

"It's our hope the Youth Venture partnership serves as a catalyst for other youth to become changemakers in their own communities." states Gretchen Zucker, executive director. Competitions like this will help take social change to new heights.
