How You Can Help

We invite and welcome your help!

There are several ways you can support and help YEP teens accomplish their mission:

• The greatest way all adults and businesses can help is to become a donor. YEP has experienced a 400% increase in youth participation each of the past two years. As a result, we need to increase staff support for YEP’s youth-led programs. During 2003-04, YEP is expanding its Youth On Board program across Washtenaw County and aims to also increase the number of teens participating from underrepresented populations. To do so, we need financial support for a YOB scholarship fund to support the participation of teens and nonprofits with less financial resources. Your tax-deductible contribution makes this possible.
  
  
• If you are a corporation or a nonprofit, we encourage you to consider partnering with any one of our programs. Support the leaders of tomorrow by partnering with them today!

• Technology: we need several durable laptop computers, a scanner and several digital cameras.
  
  
• If you are a nonprofit, please see Youth On Board for how to partner with YEP and bring teens on your board of directors.
