Dear Chaffey Student,

Do you know of a current issue affecting your community and want to be part of the solution? Whether it’s regarding homelessness, the environment or mental health, your creativity in raising awareness could be rewarded with up to $2,000 in cash prizes!

What is the scoop?
Chaffey College is participating in Solve Community Challenges, or SolveCC competition. Students are asked to research and explore problems that the community is facing and raise awareness.

How do I participate?

• Create a team (2 people minimum) and apply by August 31, 2023
• Submit your Problem Statement by October 31, 2023

What is involved in this competition?
Once a team starts the application process, they are assigned to a SolveCC Faculty Team Coach who will help guide them through the following stages of the competition:

• Step One: Research areas of interest
• Step Two: Understand the scale of the problem
• Step Three: Create a Problem Statement
• Step Four: Interview people associated with the problem statement
• Step Five: Create the final Problem statement and submit it.

What are the prizes?

• $2,000 for each of the top three teams
• $500 for each of the next seven teams
