SPONSOR OUR PROGRAM

Sponsor A Student and Make a Life Changing Difference

Many of our students come from difficult financial circumstances but still have the desire to attend our program. By sponsoring a student, you are helping support her business dreams and allowing her to attend our 21 week YEA! Class.

"[The YEA! Program] certainly has left a lasting impression on Susan*. She is 15 now and has used her experience with YEA! and her wonderful mentors to have the confidence to apply to many other programs. When she is interviewed and explains her life with YEA!, well, she's been accepted into everything she's applied for."
