Y for Youth Luncheon

Friday, March 17, 2017, we celebrated our 6th annual Y For Youth luncheon and it was an incredible day of community and support. I'm so proud of our youth MC's and youth speakers, and the impassioned Y staff and volunteers who shared stories of transformation and challenge. A big highlight of the afternoon was a performance by Michael Franti- check out the song he performed, here!

Thanks to the support of our generous donors, we raised over $575,000 for transformational youth programs at the Y, translating to life changing support and opportunities for growth, for over 10,000 youth every day- like Nasina, Alyssa, and Noah, who shared their stories on stage at the luncheon. We're so thankful to the Y For Youth volunteer committee and sponsors for working with us to raise these critical funds. And special thank you to our Innovator Investors: Gap, Lindsay and Peter Joost, Macquarie, and Swirl. Without you this life-changing work would not be possible!
