Daniels Fund Doubles New Donor Gifts For Youthentity

The Daniels Fund, a private charitable foundation established by cable television pioneer Bill Daniels, has recognized Youthentity's programs among its 2020 funding initiatives. Dedicated to making life better for the people of Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming through its grants program, scholarship program, and ethics initiative, the Daniels Fund focuses on supporting highly effective nonprofit organizations that achieve significant results.

We're incredibly excited and honored that Youthentity has been chosen as recipient of a Daniels Fund grant in the amount of $160,000. As part of the grant, Daniels Fund will match donations from new donors, up to $25,000. That’s right - all new donations through May of 2021 will be matched dollar-for-dollar, giving them twice the impact.

YE has been fortunate to have been awarded 10 Daniels Fund grants in the past; this particular grant will go toward our ambitious goal of expanding YE's Financial Literacy program, along with Career Academy and Five Year Life Plan career exploration and planning programs. Over the next five years, Youthentity will work to offer more career tracks for our students to explore through immersive and engaging programs; we also hope to bring career planning services to young people throughout our valley.

Many thanks to this important organization for its investment in Youthentity's youth development work. If you’ve never donated to Youthentity before, it’s a wonderful time to start!
