This spring, YOU have an amazing opportunity to significantly change a child’s life. How? By supporting United Way’s All in for Youth initiative! When you donate by June 21, our partner EPCOR is going to 3X match every dollar up to $100K! That means your impact immediately TRIPLES.
All in for Youth (AIFY) doesn’t shy away from the big stuff kids and their families face—especially when they’re struggling with tough situations. With your help, we connect them with mentors and therapists right in their schools, and even make sure they have healthy meals every day.
What makes AIFY unique is that we build friendly and safe spaces in our schools for kids, their families, and their entire school.
Don’t wait to make a gift that goes 3X as far, empowering our children, our families, and ENTIRE SCHOOLS to thrive! Your gift helps kids feel more confident, more resilient—and even inspires them to believe in their own potential. Learn more about All in for Youth, here.
“The best thing about AIFY is having a trusted adult who’s not your parent or a teacher, but is there for you. They make you feel special, they let you know you matter, and they care about you. You can talk about anything that you’re feeling." Lasiya, 14-year-old AIFY participant
