Why You?

You know the impact speech and debate can have, because you lived it. Now, it’s your turn to pay it forward. We can’t wait for someone else. It’s on us to make sure the next generation gets the same shot.

Why Now?

The world feels more divided than ever. We need a new generation ready to lead. A generation that can think critically, speak with empathy, and solve tough problems together. This is our moment to act.

Let’s not wait.
