The California Youth Power Fund (YPF) is building on the impact of its Northern California funding to develop a statewide strategy that advances youth organizing and long-term power-building across California. Youth lead with the hope, creativity, and courage essential for moments like these.
Youth are not waiting to lead. They are leading today. Invest alongside the youth leaders transforming California.
Why Funders Are Joining:
Youth power building is transforming communities across California, yet it continues to be chronically underfunded; supported through fragmented, inconsistent investment.
Youth Power Fund is for funders who believe this moment calls for a bolder approach: one grounded in collaboration, shared learning, and partnership with young people.
