Impact Report 2022

We believe that making a difference starts with an awareness of your own impact on the world around you.

In our 10 years of developing young leaders, we have seen how individuals who grow to become community leaders generally have the discernment to identify issues in their own communities and ecosystems. Their experiences have helped them recognize these challenges, giving them an idea of how to address them. We step in to provide free resources and mentorship so that they can put their vision into action.

Join us as we continue to cultivate a movement of young leaders who can make a difference in their communities. Let’s take a step together to inspire more generations to come.

A Force For Change

Youth-developed and youth-led by a youth-team, youth-board, and youth-partners*, we know that just inspiring youth isn’t enough –

We need to lower the threshold for active involvement.

We work with young people self-designing solutions for issues they care about.

It’s not just about providing the tools to create action. We are ensuring they have the belief that they know how to use those tools best.

* We define youth as 35 years of age and under.
