Project Ignition, sponsored by State Farm and coordinated by the National Youth Leadership Council, is a chance for students and teachers to work together to address the issue of teen driver safety. Support is provided for innovative public awareness, service-learning projects based on teen driver safety developed by students enrolled in grades 9-12 at U.S. public schools. Students must create this project with the support of a teacher or advisor. Twenty-five semi-finalists will receive $2,000 to help put their plan into action in the fall of 2008. Ten finalists will then receive a stipend of up to $5,000 for travel to the National Service-Learning Conference.
