It is our pleasure to announce that we have selected Vivian as this year’s Glocal Service Project (GSP) Seed Funding Competition winner, and Louis as the runner-up!
GCI’s annual GSP Seed Funding Competition provides a US$1,000 grant to an Ambassador who has developed a well-scoped and thoughtful plan. The competition serves to help kick-start exceptional GSPs and empower Ambassadors to design and implement feasible solutions towards challenges in their local communities. GCI usually selects a very strong runner-up to receive US$500, and this year was no different.
Please enjoy learning more about Vivian's and Louis' Glocal Service Projects below!
