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 them 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 2025-2026 College Service Grants. The Allstate Foundation has granted more than $1 million toward this program to date.
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.
