The Legacy Lab Foundation Set to Recognize a Black Student Leader Focused on Enduring Change Call for Submissions Now Open Through November 1 LOS ANGELES, Sept. 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Legacy Lab, Team One’s award-winning think tank and strategic consultancy, is now accepting submissions from students across the country at the undergraduate or graduate level. Launched in 2019, the scholarship aims to support students who represent the next wave of legacy makers, future leaders dedicated to creating lasting and positive change in their communities and beyond. The scholarship awards a future leader $10,000 to put toward school-related expenses. For this year’s submissions, the Foundation is looking to engage Black and African-American students, specifically next gen entrepreneurs and leaders working towards long-term and sustainable contributions. This year’s scholarship will be awarded to one student who is studying with the intent to revolutionize an industry, change social norms, build a long-lasting brand solution in culture, or create opportunities that will support generations to come. “We’re honored to kick off this Scholarship program for the second year, continuing our mission to support the next generation of leaders,” said Mark Miller, Chief Strategy Officer at Team One and Founder of The Legacy Lab. “We are at a tipping point and the current demand for systemic change in our country is at an all-time high, and young leaders and activists are some of the most important voices right now. It’s our goal to support these young leaders on their quest to create lasting change.” Scholarship funds are intended as an investment in ongoing education: to help a student achieve a personal ambition and subsidize school-related expenses. An ideal applicant would be an undergraduate or graduate level student attending college within the United States, studying with the intent of creating positive, enduring change. The application asks students to submit a video response to the following questions:

Hall specifically plans to work in areas of gender inequality, poverty, and mental health. This Scholarship is powered by The Giving Back Fund, an LA-based nonprofit that facilitates charitable giving.
