Student Engagement

Today’s students are shaping the future for children. Will you join us?

 

 

We harness the power of high school and college students to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of children.  By teaming up with us, you’ll join a national network of student activists mobilizing their communities to take action for kids!

Through our unique and flexible program, you’ll build a school club to host fundraisers, meet with lawmakers, learn about issues affecting children in the US and around the world, educate your peers, and so much more! Students drive their own participation, so you can engage according to your interests. We provide all the support, training and resources you’ll need to be successful.

  • Engage your elected officials and advocate for policies and legislation to improve children’s lives.
  • Host creative fundraisers like game nights, change competitions, bake sales, and mileage events.
  • Educate your classmates and community about vital children’s issues through film screenings, discussions, and speaker events.
  • Write letters to the editor for school papers and local news outlets about critical issues affecting children.
  • Represent Save the Children/SCAN in your community, and recruit others to join the movement for kids!

What’s in it for you?

  • Build marketable skills in leadership, community and event organizing, public speaking, advocacy and fundraising.
  • Receive training and mentorship from a team of professional advocates, fundraisers, and organizers
  • Gain in-depth knowledge of policies and issues affecting children.
