About
Join YouthLead, Schmidt Futures, and The Rhodes Trust as they co-host an informational webinar about Rise, an exciting new opportunity for talented young people around the world.
Recognizing that the world’s most important problems will be solved by tomorrow’s leaders, Rise is on a mission to find extraordinary 15 to 17-year-olds who need an opportunity and who will receive lifelong support from Rise as they use their talents to serve others.
This informational webinar will provide YouthLead members with a unique opportunity to meet the Rise team and learn more about the potential scholarships, mentorship, and lifelong opportunities that make Rise different from other programs. They'll also learn how to apply to Rise, and what they can expect from the program. YouthLead welcomes all young people interested in applying to Rise and/or those who support peer networks of young people who would benefit from the opportunity.
