Challenge

cC addresses the under-utilization of assets that occurs in a university community by bringing together student problem-solvers and exceptional nonprofit clients in a collaborative and impactful program. This project will empower 150 Northwestern & University of Chicago students, 30 MBA students from Kellogg & the GSB, and 30 nonprofit clients, generating an investment of over $300,000 worth of pro-bono service to our communities.

Solution

cC will run 6 10-week long sessions, 3 sessions per campus. Each session will offer a for-credit academic seminar for all students, MBA mentorship for teams of 5 students, and an opportunity to build the capacity of a local nonprofit.

Long-Term Impact

While cC builds the capacity of nonprofits in the short-term, in the long-term, cC challenges its student leaders to lead integrated, cross-sectoral lives, making lifelong commitments to the social good.
