Why "Impact Builders"?

We named our monthly giving program “Impact Builders” because it reflects the foundational role our donors play in creating lasting change. Your ongoing contributions are the cornerstone of our programs, enabling us to offer continuous education, workforce development, and comprehensive support services. By becoming an Impact Builder, you are helping to build a solid foundation for young adults to achieve their dreams and contribute positively to their community.

Why should I choose monthly giving instead of a one time donation?

Monthly giving allows you to make a lasting impact with a manageable commitment. By spreading your contributions throughout the year, you provide YBLC with steady, reliable funding that ensures we can continuously support our participants without interruption. This sustained support helps us plan more effectively and implement long-term projects that create meaningful change in the lives of the young adults we serve.

What impact does my monthly donation have?

Your monthly support will allow us to expand our reach, develop new programs, and provide more resources for those who need it most.  It enables us to offer consistent educational opportunities, hands-on training, and comprehensive support services to our participants. With your ongoing support, we can help more young adults gain the skills, confidence, and opportunities they need to build brighter futures.
