(Having a teenage son, this one really struck a note for me).

The Best Buy Foundation is supporting non-profits across the United States for providing positive experiences designed to help teens in the following areas:

• to excel in school
• to engage in their communities
• to develop leadership skills

501(c) (3) tax exempt nonprofits can apply to the Foundation’s “@15 community Grants Program” which intends to grant a total of $2 million to a group of selected applicants.

“Special consideration will be given to programs that serve a diverse population in local or regional communities; build social, academic, leadership, and/or life skills in early adolescents (ages 13-18); show positive results against a demonstrated community need; and reach at-risk children in working families.”

The deadline to apply is July 1, 2010.
