Smoking is banned in most public spaces in the U.S., but it’s still permitted on more than 3,200 colleges across the country.
Social-change organization DoSomething.org wants to, well, do something about that.
The organization is awarding a $2,500 scholarship to one lucky winner who joins the initiative to stamp out smoking on college campuses.
The application process couldn’t be easier. There are no forms to fill out or essays to write.
Just take a photo of a college where smoking is permitted or snap a picture with its mascot and you could snag $2,500 to help pay your college bills.
