Donate to Support NYLC

This year’s Annual Fund contributions will support the National Youth Leadership Training expansion plans in 2013. NYLC is seeking funding to support this life-changing experience for more youth: our goal for 2013 is to train 25 teams — each consisting of two or three students and one mentor — from 25 communities across the country. Funding will help keep participant costs affordable and help provide year-round support to teams as they carry out service-learning projects in their home communities.

NYLT 2012

NYLT is a life-changing week of self-discovery, cultural exchange, leadership development, and service. Students arrive with a range of leadership experiences, and leave with:

  • Experience working in teams with people from different races, ethnicities, genders, geographies, and socio-economic backgrounds
  • The tools and knowledge to create equitable change in their communities
  • Motivation to take action for the common good
  • An enhanced awareness of social and political issues that influence the achievement gap
  • The Smart. Youth Solutions to the Achievement Gap™ student handbook and access to yearlong support from NYLC staff
