"Rise Academy strives to create a pipeline of BIPOC leaders in the youth development field that reflects the diverse young communities they serve."

Youth INC connects employees with meaningful opportunities to contribute their expertise, develop as leaders, and build lasting relationships with New York City's nonprofit community.

Board Service & MATCHING

Strong boards help nonprofits navigate challenges, access resources, and plan for the future. Through our Get on Board program, we prepare employees for meaningful governance roles with training and tailored board matching. Our Nonprofit Board Fair offers opportunities to explore board service and network with nonprofit leaders and peers.

VolunteerING & MENTORSHIP

Nonprofits benefit from access to skills and expertise beyond their own teams. We connect employees with opportunities that address our Nonprofit Partners' priorities, including projects in finance, communications, technology, and strategy. Employees can also mentor emerging nonprofit leaders through our award-winning Rise Academy for Leaders of Color program or support young people through mentoring, career exposure, and community activities.

Philanthropic LEARNING & Guidance

Informed philanthropy starts with understanding the communities and organizations you want to support. We help companies and employees explore New York City's nonprofit landscape through workshops, conversations with nonprofit leaders, and site visits. Our guidance on giving strategies helps turn philanthropic interest into meaningful, sustained engagement.

Invest in the people, systems, and organizations that help youth-serving nonprofits grow, adapt, and sustain their impact.

Nonprofit Innovation

Technology can help nonprofits work more effectively, but adopting it requires resources and support. Our Partner Impact Fund for Tech Transformation provides two-year grants to help nonprofit partners harness AI and technology. We're also developing a virtual learning platform to expand access to workforce training and strengthen organizational capacity.

Corporate & Workplace Giving

Invest in the long-term strength of youth-serving nonprofits. Include Youth INC in your company's matching gift program, year-end giving, or Giving Tuesday campaign. Your support helps us provide the coaching, connections, and capital that enable nonprofit organizations to grow and sustain their impact.

Grantee Capacity Building

Your grants support important work. Investing in the strength of the organizations behind that work can extend their impact. Youth INC helps your existing grantees strengthen leadership, revenue strategy, board governance, and organizational planning. We also bring nonprofit leaders together through roundtables, peer learning, and forums to exchange ideas and build connections.
