Happy New Year! So .... What's New at The Youth Source?!

We're very excited to be embarking upon our first full year as The Youth Source, and look forward to growing our programs and our staff in the year ahead.  We have new volunteers, new ideas, a new website, and hopefully we'll soon be in the midst of writing grant proposals with the goal of hiring a full-time Youth Source Director, as well as increasing hours of operation for our office staff.  

Our Board of Directors is scheduled to meet January 25th, at which time we will be discussing many of these issues, and setting our goals for the coming year. 

Our annual "Night at the Cotton Club" fund-raiser will be held March 24th, and we're looking forward to meeting all our wonderful supporters again at that time.  By then we should have some news to share as to changes ahead.   As you know, without your help we could not have kept our organization going in these past few years when money has been so hard to come by for non-profits.  Your commitment to the work we do has allowed us to continue, and empowered us to dare to dream of doing even more. 

We thank you for all your help -- past, present and future -- and we look forward to seeing you March 24th!  For your convenience, we now have secure online ticket sales for the Cotton Club event, as well as online donation capability.

Come help us motivate our young people to become the best students, citizens and leaders they can be!
