Donate to Support the Kielsmeier Leadership Fund

The Kielsmeier Leadership Fund is a donor-advised, endowed fund with the St. Paul Foundation. Your donation will accrue interest and leverage other resources to impact the lives and opportunities afforded to the many outstanding young people whom we have the privilege to work with at NYLC.

The Kielsmeier Leadership Fund will continue the work of Jim Kielsmeier, founder of NYLC, by providing authentic leadership experiences for young people, particularly those who are least often asked to lead. Together, we will ensure that young people are equipped with the skills to make powerful impacts in their communities.
