Whether it’s a written story, video, or illustration, it doesn’t matter. We just want to spark your creativity and help bring your idea, energy, and passion for Maryville, TN – Blount Co to life.  How would you spend $2500 to bring about change?

Make sure your idea and application addresses these questions:

  1. What’s the issue or problem you’d like to help address in your community?
  2. What’s your BIG IDEA to help address the issue?
  3. When would your project take place?
  4. Who will you partner with to help succeed (i.e., your local United Way, a local non-profit, your school or church)
  5. How will you know the project has been a success?

Family Promise wants to hear your ideas – we want you to be creatuve –  but if you are interested but just don’t know where to start – Please call us.  We’ll sit down over a Pop-Tart and help you brainstorm!  (We can also Zoom!)

You never know what amazing ideas young people have to change the world – but we would love to explore them with you!
