Donors and Community Support

YLA relies on the generosity of community donors and leaders to keep our registration fees minimal, to offer financial assistance as needed, and support our programming. If you are a business, individual, or industry interested in contributing goods or services, please email us at yla@youthleadershipathens.com

We have opportunities for in-kind donations as well as financial contributions.  You may contribute to our general fund, sponsor a meal, or provide other items for our participants. We look forward to your joining our contributors from our past programs.
