Yleana supports students
year-round!
WE DID IT!! We EXCEEDED our $14,000 goal!
Incredible news - with the hard work of our board, their friends and family, and YOU, we exceeded our goal!
We raised a whopping $17,659.72 - more than 125% of our original target. The outpouring of support for our kids, especially during such an uncertain time, is truly spectacular; I want to thank each and every supporter. We couldn’t have done it without your generosity.
I want to also highlight the amazing work of our dedicated, compassionate board. Their participation, advice and advocacy through this campaign were instrumental, and they deserve a huge pat on the back. THANK YOU!

Project: HAPPY CAMPER! will fund full scholarships for Yleana students in 2021! By becoming a monthly donor, you will not only give a student tons of summer fun, lifelong memories, and the opportunity to explore entrepreneurship, social justice, careers, and college life, but your donation will also be doubled - up to $14,000!

Consider donating $300 with additional tax benefits: The 2020 CARES Act allows for taxpayers to deduct up to $300 for donations to qualifying organizations without having to itemize! With the recent extension, this option will be available through 2021, now with an added component: the $300 above-the-line deduction is per person instead of per return, meaning couples filing jointly may deduct up to $600! You’ll qualify for additional tax benefits while also supporting our future leaders!
