All winners will receive hardware, Adobe Creative Cloud, and cash grants to nonprofits that will support their vision for change. Venture prize winners will also receive mentorship from Ashoka Youth Ventures. In addition, both prize winners and finalists will become eligible to apply for an Adobe Youth Voices Scholarship.

Adobe Youth Voices Awards Social Venture
The Adobe Youth Voices Awards (AYV) is excited to announce the introduction of a new category: Venture.
What is a Social Venture Video?
Do you have an idea for a project to better your community? Are you innovative, driven, and want to be supported by a global audience? If so, you’re invited to create a short video for the AYV Awards Venture category!
A youth-led social venture is a project or organization run by youth to create positive impact in the community. Whether you are starting up or fully established, produce a video that shows the problem you’re addressing, how your solution works, and who it benefits. It could be a pitch or a story of change to inform and inspire about your journey on creating change. Be creative and engaging.
Make a video utilizing a mobile device or camera that shows the main purpose of your idea or project. It could be an initial idea to be implemented or a project that already has demonstrated impact.
Lastly, all AYV Award winners will receive cash grants to help fund their great ideas.
