TurnUp Civic Tech Challenge Proposal
The TurnUp Civic Tech Challenge welcomes folks under age 26 to share their idea for a civic technology project that will promote youth voter registration, turnout, or activism. Enter for the chance to win up to $25,000 and TurnUp's support to help bring your vision to life. We welcome projects in any phase of execution, whether it's an idea or already in the works.

We will be reviewing proposals on a rolling basis until May 1st, at which time this application will close. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with the Challenge Director at tabitha@turnupactivism.org.
