Friends,
Here’s an exciting opportunity to open your heart for the hardworking youth who give so much outside of school to lead organizing campaigns for quality education, immigrants’ rights and a healthy environment.
By giving right now to CAUSE’s Summer Youth Program you can double your impact!
You may know of our Summer Youth Fellowship, a paid leadership development program for local high school and community college students committed to changing their communities. Youth fellows learn community organizing and advocacy skills while planning community forums and rallies, registering and engaging voters, and speaking to elected officials and news media.
Check out their video testimonials here.
Kris and Meenal Kelkar, generous CAUSE supporters, are offering a challenge match of $7,500 for this summer’s youth program. That means your donation will be matched dollar per dollar!
Can you contribute $25 or more for this summer’s youth leaders?
I know you love our community as much as I do. Thank you for investing in it, and our local youth leaders.
