Draft outreach language

This month I am helping the Millennium Campus Network identify promising 15-17 year olds and help them apply to the Rise program. Rise is a unique program that challenges teenagers to identify a social issue in their community and design a project that responds to the issue. 100 Rise winners are selected annually to receive scholarships, funding, mentorship, and more. Rise was founded by former Google CEO Erick Schmidt and his partner Wendy Schmidt. I am thrilled to help recruit for this transformative program.

If you know any eligible teenagers - from friends, siblings, mentees, etc.. please share this opportunity with them - it might change their lives. The registration link is here: risefortheworld.org/mcn . The final deadline is JANUARY 17th, and early applications are strongly encouraged.
