Student Global Ambassador Social Impact Scholarship Fund
Every year, GYPA offers students from across the United States the unique opportunity to travel to Africa for 2-3 week trips that involve dialogue, cultural immersion, and direct service. However, many interested and qualified applicants are unable to cover the costs of the program. GYPA is hoping to establish a Scholarship Fund to provide mini-grants to participants demonstrating financial need.
