Youth Philanthropy Program

Youth Philanthropy Program Currently, the program is inactive. This program engaged local youth leaders in philanthropy by immersing them in grantmaking decisions and processes.

The Community Foundation for Southwest Washington operated the Youth Philanthropy Program to inspire, equip, and mobilize young people to take action that changes their community and themselves. It was an opportunity for high school juniors and seniors to serve as governance architects, fund developers and grant committee members, as they distributed funds to organizations that addressed the needs

of local youth. Each year, an amazing group of students defined their purpose and focus for granting, established review criteria and selected grant recipients. Along the way, they polled their peers, volunteered at several nonprofits and conducted eye-opening site visits. The result: a newfound understanding of what need truly means and the many ways we can all be of help.

Our goal is to build awareness of, volunteer for, and grant to organizations that best address these issues.

Walk & Knock organizers are calling for more volunteers this year to help ensure that this event builds on its successful history in Clark County. Please read if you are interested in helping.

New federal trucking regulations have made it riskier this year for truckers and their employers to volunteer their services for Clark County's largest annual food drive.
