“I wouldn’t have been as involved in my community if it wasn’t for YE. It not only strengthens community ties, but also character development. It’s something donors should be proud of and happy to invest in.” Amanda, 2011, Northwest High School, Wichita, Kansas
Individual Support

Financial donations provide direct and immediate support, and donations are tax deductible. We offer you the flexibility to donate over a period of weeks, months or years. You can also donate your time as a volunteer.

Sponsorships

You or your company may be interested in sponsoring specific activities in return for significant recognition. Contact us for more information on sponsoring one of our events.

Employer Matching Gifts

Make your dollar work harder! Many employers match their employees’ gifts to charitable institutions, and some companies will even match the gifts of employee spouses and retired employees. Ask the human resources or benefits office at your workplace for more information.

Gift Planning

Some charitable gifts require more thought and planning to execute than the average donation. We gladly accept gifts from a variety of sources, such as retirement plans, life insurance, trusts and annuities, real estate and more. Contact us to discuss your individual contribution options.

Help students develop the business skills and values that enable them to create their own opportunities.
