The One Million Youth Challenge

Sulong mga Kapatid

You don't need super powers to save the world—or the Philippines for that matter. All you need is one brilliant business idea to pitch in Project Pagsulong: The 1 Million Peso Challenge.

The idea behind Project Pagsulong is simple: all you need to do is to round up three to five friends to make up your team and come up with one original business proposal for a chance to see your business proposal come to life and create a change in your chosen community.

All business proposals must be independent ventures, meaning, that these should not be linked to any organization, whether non-profit organization or private corporations. It's also vital that these proposals must have not won any other business proposal grant competitions.

The best ideas that can potentially create the biggest impacts will be funded and brought to life for the entire project duration. Five hundred thousand pesos will go to the first prize winner, with Php 300,000 and Php 200,000 going straight to the second and third prize winners respectively. The idea that makes it big in people's hearts, the People's Choice Award will get a whopping Php 100,000.

Fired up with an idea already that can make the Philippines a better place to live in? Check out http://www.projectpagsulong.ph/submission for Project Pagsulong submission details.

Business proposals should be in by August 31.
