**Huawei has launched the Make It Possible Bursary to help people in the UK follow
their dreams – including their charitable ambitions.**

aims to celebrate and inspire creative and entrepreneurial spirit in the UK and 
will provide £30,000 for individuals to make their ambition possible this year with
one successful applicant to receive a £20,000 bursary and a further £5,000 each

The bursary is designed to encourage entries across a range of categories, whether
people want to be photographers, baking bloggers, have a great idea to start a business
or want to do something for charity. It forms part of Huawei’s ‘I Am What I Do’ 
campaign, which aims to inspire creativity and encourage people to use technology
to unlock their potential and will also award successful applicants with a Huawei
Mate 10 Pro device.

 

Huawei UK Managing Director, James Jie, said:

 

> “At Huawei we believe in inspiring and empowering individuals to unlock their 
> potential. With the Make It Possible Bursary we hope not only to help the individuals
> who win the bursary to fulfil their long held goals but to inspire people across
> the country to believe that they can make 2018 the year they achieve their ambitions.”

 

In a similar vein, in 2015, Utility Aid launched [The Nicest Job in Britain.](https://fundraising.co.uk/2016/08/10/nicest-job-britain-relaunches-second-year/)
This offered one person the opportunity to help 45 charities in one year as National
Philanthropy Manager, spending a week with each. It also offered a salary, a car,
and a range of benefits. Applicants had to submit a video showcasing why they were
the best person for the job. It was won by Luke Cameron in year one who then went
on to set up [NicestJobs.com](https://www.nicestjobs.com/).
