The Allstate Foundation College Service Grants

In support of The Allstate Foundation‘s youth empowerment strategy, the Center for Expanding Leadership & Opportunity (CELO) has partnered with the Foundation to (re)define youth service for a new generation and empower youth to serve and improve communities. In continuation of this partnership, we are excited to announce the 2026-2027 College Service Grants. To date, The Allstate Foundation has generously granted $2 million toward this program.

Funded initiatives fall into one of the following categories:

Microgrants: Directly provided to students for new, youth-led service initiatives.
Access Support: Initiatives that increase student access to service experiences.
Increasing Impact: Initiatives that enhance the depth of impact of existing youth-led service activities.
