\n Students with Drive Fuel Change
<\/b>
\n Students with Drive<\/i> first launched in October 2011<\/span> to support student organizations who need access to transportation to move their mission forward. <\/b>Since then, Zipcar has given more than one million dollars<\/span> in funding to empower 400 student groups across the country. This year, the Grand Prize will consist of $5,000<\/span> to the student organization, $5,000<\/span> to the University general scholarship fund and $2,000<\/span> for the student organization to access Zipcars, with tiered prizes for second through tenth place.<\/p>\n

Interested student organizations who have Zipcars on or around campus\u00a0should enter by October 31, 2022<\/span>, by submitting a questionnaire that addresses their mission and how Zipcar can drive it further. A panel of judges will review the submissions, and the top 10 entrants will receive $300<\/span> in Zipcar Driving Credit and a $500<\/span> gift card to create a video demonstrating how the student organization will address its mission with the help of Zipcar. Videos must be submitted by February 16, 2023<\/span> and will be voted on via Zipcar and social media. Winners will be notified and announced in the spring of 2023.
