With large foundations parsing out millions of dollars in grant money each year, a group with $10,000 to distribute might feel a little insignificant.
Not so, when the money is in the hands of young people excited about what just a few dollars can accomplish in their communities, says Nikki Devillers.
Devillers, assistant vice president at Foundation for the Carolinas in Charlotte, oversees the foundation's Teen Impact Fund, a year-old program that entrusts high school students with $10,000 to distribute to community programs."
