Live It Fund

Students identify an opportunity or problem & propose an innovative solution

Live It Fund

The Live It Fund empowers entrepreneurial, socially-impact-driven students with hope and determination to transform their ideas into tangible actions that drive meaningful change in the world. This fund exists to support students who see opportunities or challenges and have the courage to design innovative solutions. Since its inception in 2010, the Live It Fund has provided up to $2,000 in J-Term project funding, along with the chance to apply for summer funding of up to $6,250. Macalester students continually inspire us with their passion, creativity, and commitment to global engagement and responsibility, embodying the spirit of human-centered design by tackling real-world problems with empathy, innovation, and a bias toward action.

Empowering students to create solutions to the problems they care about, the Live It Fund fosters empathy-driven action and design thinking to make a positive impact on the world.
