Iowa's Promise Youth Grants
Iowa's Promise Youth Grants -- ANNUAL APPLICATION DEADLINE IS FEB. 1

This program is made possible through a partnership between the Iowa Commission on Volunteer Service and Iowa State University Extension. It has been designed to help Iowa youth make a connection between their activities and the larger picture of contributing to fulfilling the Five Promises in their community.
