YVA is working to build power to challenge the roots of our climate breakdown. We organize in 25 frontline schools around the Bay Area, build strategic campaigns, and mobilize thousands into the streets. We are so honored to work with so many amazing young people, with the support of allies of all ages.

We need your help to sustain our organizing and help remove barriers to frontline youth taking action for climate justice.

HERE ARE THREE WAYS YOU CAN STAND WITH US:

Sponsor-An-Activist (click here to learn more!) - In this program, which is now in its third year, an individual or a group pays the wages of one of YVA's part-time youth community organizers, allowing them to dedicate themselves to popular education and movement building. It's an amazing way to redistribute wealth and opportunity to frontline youth activists. If you are interested in learning more, we would love to connect you with one of our current sponsors.

Sign up to Volunteer (click here to sign up!) -YVA's youth-led actions are supported by the work of a whole crew of volunteers that helps out with everything from food prep to march marshaling. If you can help out, we appreciate it!

Donate to our General Costs (click here to donate!) -Everyone's contribution makes a difference. Ten dollars can buy pizza for a school-based club meeting. One hundred can pay for materials for a giant banner. One thousand can pay for a school bus to bring youth to a strike who otherwise would be blocked by lack of transportation.
