Over the past six years, Zipcar and Ford Motor Company have driven the “Students with Drive” grant program to success, donating more than $1 million and helping more than 400 student organizations across the U.S. The program seeks to further the efforts of – and reward – student organizations that are making positive impacts both on and off campus.

The 2017-2018 challenge is up and running, so students should get their creativity rolling and put their ideas in motion — entries will be accepted until October 15, 2017 (11:59 p.m. ET).

To apply, students who are part of an organization have to fill out a form and upload a short video (one to 2 minutes only) showcasing their community-changing story and explaining how Ford and Zipcar can help them go further with their mission.
