Your Giving Builds Bridges
YouthBridge-NY is an investment in the next generation of NYC's diverse community leaders, empowering them as they learn how to have difficult conversations, promote inclusive environments, and utilize diversity as an opportunity for enriching their neighborhoods and New York City as a whole.
Our teens learn key leadership skills such as advocacy, communication, conflict mediation, cultural understanding, networking, and team building.
In order to keep this program completely FREE for NYC youth, we rely on funding from our wonderful donors.
How your investment impacts youth:
$25 covers admission and transportation for one participant in a team-building field trip or museum tour
$150 covers dinner at our evening programs (We always feed our participants!)
$350 covers fees for an engaging two-hour workshop
$750 covers the cost of renting space to host an event for our participants or alumni
$1,000 helps offset the cost of our summer retreat for new participants
$2,500 covers the year-long cost of engaging one participant
We would be nowhere without your support!
