RISE: Global Challenge for Young People by Schmidt Futures and the Rhodes Trust

Rise is a program that finds promising young people and provides opportunity for life as they work to serve others. The program starts at ages 15–17 and encourages a lifetime of service and learning by providing support that includes need-based scholarships, mentorship, networking, access to career development opportunities, and the potential for additional funding as Rise Global Winners work toward solving humanity’s most pressing problems.

Everyone who applies joins a global community of leaders and gains access to opportunities from our partners around the world.

WHO CAN APPLY
Applicants for the 2024 cohort must be between the ages of 15 and 17 as of July 1, 2024, meaning they are born on or between July 2, 2006 and July 1, 2009.

Residential Summit: 
One fully-funded residential summit with other Rise Global Winners from their cohort to be held in a rotating location globally.

A four-year, post-secondary scholarship at any accredited university, including tuition and a living stipend, based on need and where not already covered by financial aid.
Funding for Ideas on a Competitive Basis: 
Opportunity to apply for funding for innovative ideas ranging, for example, from seed money to start a social enterprise to grants for a non-profit. Funds will be designated for these purposes in a total pooled amount of at least $5M/year of the program and will be available competitively to Winners and Finalists.
Network Matching: 
Access to a network of other Global Winners, community members, and partner organizations, as well as career development programming, delivered primarily through technology (via matching platform).
