S2 Youth Philanthropy Initiative (YPI)

Due to school closures, S2 pupils in Social Subjects at MCHS, unfortunately, did not get an opportunity to finish their fantastic YPI projects, helping local charities. However, the Wood Foundation and YPI Scotland have created a fantastic opportunity for pupils to take part in YPI remotely.

YPI is giving pupils the opportunity to gain one of 50 grants of £4000, to give to a charity that is working at a local level to help with the impact of COVID-19 on communities.

Pupils can participate in pair and teams (remotely) to create an inspirational and creative submission on behalf of a charity, to be in with a chance to help win £4000 for their charity, and make a real impact affecting change in our local community for those who are vulnerable at this time.

Full details on how to participate have been posted in the S2 Social Subjects Google Classroom.

Pupils who participate must abide by social distancing guidelines and communicate with their teams remotely using online platforms.

We look forward to seeing some inspirational and creative submissions from you S2!
