Program Overview
Climate leadership training from Al Gore's organization.
**Climate Reality Project Campus Corps** is a student-led initiative supported by the **Climate Reality Project**, the organization founded by former U.S. Vice President Al Gore. Through Campus Corps, high school students collaborate to raise awareness about climate change, advocate for local solutions, and engage their school communities in sustainability efforts. Participants receive guidance from experienced climate leaders and access to educational resources that explain climate science, policy, and communication strategies in an accessible way. This program is well-suited for students who are interested in environmental issues, public speaking, community organizing, or civic engagement. Members typically work on activities such as organizing educational events, supporting climate-related campaigns, and partnering with local organizations or school administrators to promote climate action. In the process, students develop skills in **leadership**, **teamwork**, **advocacy**, and **project management**. For college applications, participation in Campus Corps can demonstrate sustained commitment to a complex global issue, as well as experience in organizing projects that have tangible impact. Students can highlight their roles in planning initiatives, collaborating with diverse stakeholders, and communicating climate issues clearly and responsibly. This experience can be especially valuable for those considering majors in environmental science, public policy, social science, or related fields.
