Taco Bell and Lil Nas X are launching an Ambition Accelerator program to help young people make changes in their communities. Taco Bell is one of Gen Z and Millennials’ favorite fast food places and as part of its partnership with Lil Nas X, the two are working with social entrepreneurship nonprofit group Ashoka to launch the Ambition Accelerator program, which is helping young people make changes in their respective communities. From now until July 21, residents in the U.S. ages 16-26-year-olds can submit their ideas on how to tackle society’s most pressing issues through the Taco Bell Foundation site. Those who are selected for the program will receive mentorship, up to $25,000 in funding, and a trip to the Taco Bell HQ in Irvine, California to pitch their ideas. The program is especially looking for ideas that focus on the challenges impacting people of diverse backgrounds and identities, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, women, and members of other underrepresented communities.
