Founded in 2019, YBS Kids is devoted to educating, inspiring, and empowering our children to know more about racial and social issues, building a community, the power of generational wealth, and discovering Black culture awareness.
We inspire young people to be confident and proud through positive exposure. We empower communities with the help of parents, schools, and leaders. In recent years, we've supported schools by providing supplies, books, and meals for families and first responders.
We aim to support the youth in achieving their higher education dreams by expanding our program to offer financial assistance for college or trade school. YBS Kids will launch the Access to Awesome Scholarship Program in 2024.
Your donations will be crucial in continuing and expanding these essential workshops. These contributions will provide funding for materials, resources, venues, and facilitators, ensuring valuable workshops can reach more people and impact the community. Supporting YBS Kids initiatives through donations is a meaningful way to invest in education, skill development, and community enrichment.
Young, Black and Suburban Kids is dedicated to teaching young people cultural history, life skills, and community involvement in ways that empower them for a better future.
Our current needs include general funding to provide year-round enrichment workshops designed for middle- and high-schoolers in career and college readiness, financial literacy, community volunteering, nutrition education, STEM, cultural education, and more.
YBS Kids respects the value of diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and social justice in providing equal opportunity to all staff, volunteers, Board members, and members.
