Mike’s best ever school project is the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative, which gives Scottish young people the opportunity to champion a local charity.
Requiring pupils to work closely with local charities, this inspirational activity not only helps young pupil to develop teamwork, research and presentation skills, it also gives them the opportunity to make a real difference by winning a £3,000 grant for their chosen charity.
So far, YPI has enabled more than 270,000 young Scots to be involved in the transformational distribution of six million pounds across local communities.
