GLOBECHANGERS is based on a simple TEN STEP PLAN designed to take young Americans 25 or under from ideation to implementation as quickly and comprehensively as possible. The TEN STEP PLAN is animated right here on our state-of-the- art website, with video explanations, document creation tools, and a mountain of examples to stimulate imagination and get results. As you move through the plan, from "Think Big" to "Communicate," you're not just accomplishing a project: you're gaining valuable leadership life skills, like successful communication and marketing, or fund raising. The tools and skills offered to our Globechangers are the same skills that Jefferson Awards founder Sam Beard developed over 50 years in public service working with seven different US Presidents. As Sam puts it, "If I can create and run a program for seven different Presidents of the United States, SO CAN YOU. And here's how - Step by Step."
