About YouthAtlas
Prospera Development Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN: 92-3630661) that believes every young person deserves equal access to life-changing opportunities — regardless of where they were born or who they know. YouthAtlas is our flagship program: a free platform that aggregates scholarships, fellowships, internships, grants, competitions, and other opportunities for young people, all in one searchable, organized place. We index 800+ opportunities from trusted sources around the world, updated every single day.
The Problem
Thousands of high-quality opportunities exist for young people every year. Fully-funded fellowships, prestigious scholarships, competitive internships, and more. But they're scattered across hundreds of websites, social media groups, and mailing lists.
Most students and young professionals never hear about the best opportunities simply because they don't know where to look, or don't have the time to search every source every week.
Our Solution
YouthAtlas automatically discovers and indexes opportunities from across the web, presenting them in a clean, searchable format. Filter by type, region, funding status, or deadline. Bookmark the ones you care about. Get the best ones delivered to your inbox weekly.
How It Works
- AI-powered scrapers run daily to discover new opportunities from trusted sources across the web.
- Daily updates keep listings fresh. Expired opportunities are automatically removed, and new ones surface quickly.
- Browse and filter by opportunity type, region, funding status, and deadline directly on the platform.
- Semantic search understands what you mean, not just what you type. Search “climate funding” and find environment, sustainability, and conservation opportunities too.
- Telegram channel (@youthatlas1) posts the best new opportunities daily.
- Weekly email digest delivers the top opportunities of the week straight to your inbox every Monday.
Who We Are
YouthAtlas is a project of the Prospera Development Foundation, the nonprofit arm of Selvitas. Built by Federico Perez, a graduate student and developer focused on making opportunity access more equitable.
We are not affiliated with any university, government body, or funding organization. We believe that where you grow up or who you know should not determine which opportunities you find out about. YouthAtlas exists to level that playing field.
