Philanthropy


M.I.S.S.I.O.N. (Meaningful Investments for Student Solutions in Our Neighborhood) was founded by high school students from rural upstate New York. They witnessed first hand the need for positive change in the environment, education, and their community.

M.I.S.S.I.O.N. is truly youth-driven!

M.IS.S.I.O.N. students raise money through grants and fund-raisers for projects that align with their funding priorities. They then distribute the funds to organizations that align with their funding priorities through a competitive grant application process.
