OUR MISSION:
By Young People, For Young People
Our mission is to advance the education, skills and quality of life of young people through access to workshops, mental health training, work experience opportunities and also via information delivered through our magazine and mental health films. Student Life is a charity with young people at the heart of everything we do. They are encouraged to take an active leadership role; including at board level - crucial to ensure Student Life is driven and guided by the very people it was created to support.
For this reason, this challenge aims to encourage our young people to take an active role in organising and hosting their own fundraising events. Not only will this provide an opportunity to be upskilled in areas such as leadership and innovation, but this will also allow young people to take control of their charity and witness the direct impact of their fundraising through the roll out of Student Life's projects within their educational setting.
In addition, we are opening up this fundraiser to not just the young people we support, but to the organisations that support us and the wider community. Nuturing and mentoring young people is a collaborative effort and so we are encouraging involvement from everyone in this fundraising challenge.
Thank you so much for being involved!
