  Sharing from a colleague. Looks like a great opportunity!?

  Dear ACUI Member,

  ?I hope that your new year has started on a high note and that this email finds you well! As a dedicated leadership educator, you know the incredible power of your work in shaping the next generation of leaders. However, we also know that funding for leadership programs has been a long-standing challenge, leaving many impactful initiatives underfunded or unlaunched.

  To bridge this gap, the Charlie Life and Leadership Academy (CLLA), in partnership with the C. Charles Jackson Foundation, is thrilled to offer the?Ignite Grant Program,?a funding opportunity that provides grants and direct support to help institutions address critical challenges in student leadership learning.

  ?However, the Ignite Grant is only the beginning. Successful Ignite Projects open the door to our?Impact Grant Program,?which offers large-scale funding to implement and expand the strategies identified and developed during the Ignite phase. With matching funds and continued expert support, the Impact Grant ensures that the solutions you develop lead to lasting change and deeper institutional commitment. Together, these programs create a clear path from diagnosing challenges to delivering high-impact, sustainable leadership learning initiatives.

  ?This is your chance to:

  • Access funding and expertise tailored to leadership education,
  • Enhance your institution’s credibility and capacity for leadership learning, and
  • Build a trajectory that drives meaningful, measurable results for your students and community

  Applications for the Ignite Grant are due by?February 7, 2025. Learn more and apply here:?https://charlieacademy.org/grants/.

  Thank you for all that you do to shape the leaders of tomorrow. If you have questions or would like to discuss your idea or initiative prior to the submission date, please contact me at the information below or connect with our Project Manager, Corina McBride, at?programs@charlieacademy.org.?

  ?We sincerely thank you for your time, and we look forward to walking with you, as we collectively make your student leadership learning vision a reality.
