Youth Philanthropy Program

 
 

Learning to Serve with Time, Talent, and Treasure

Engaging youth in service and grant making in a club, classroom, or youth development program.

 

 

 

 

What is the Youth Philanthropy Program?

 

Currently, at over 120 schools and community organizations in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky (and a handful in Cleveland and Dayton!), we support a teacher or facilitator with curriculum and lesson plans to educate their students about social causes and how to use their time, talents, and treasure to make a difference. We provide each group with a $1,000 grant and empower the youth participants to select a local nonprofit organization to support with the grant funding. The process provides a meaningful and memorable opportunity to build relationships with local organizations, serve others, and meet community needs.

  • Grades 6-12

  • Can be implemented in a classroom, club, after-school program, or community youth development program

  • We provide resources and support to help each facilitator implement the program to fit the opportunities and needs of their school or agency 

Want to Get Involved?

We’d love to help your school or youth development program raise up young philanthropists!
