Plastic pollution isn't just about litter, it's a production problem. The Wayfinder Society Student Mini-Grant funds projects that help students understand the root causes of plastic pollution and take action in their own communities. Whether through reusables on campus, education campaigns, policy advocacy, or creative reuse initiatives, these projects should build local capacity for long-term change. Mini-Grants are open to students worldwide who are leading or developing projects that address the root cause of plastic pollution. Projects can take place in the student's school, neighborhood, or broader community. Each applicant must also identify an adult advisor who can provide guidance and support along the way. Eligible projects are any new or existing efforts focused on addressing the plastic problem including, but not limited to education campaigns, cleanup initiatives, incorporating reusables in school cafeteria, community-based research or hosting a fixit clinic on campus. Applicants must complete at least these two actions before the application deadline: The Story of Plastic, watch the film and The Story of Plastic, System Mapping.
