Louisville Youth Philanthropy Council Annual Event

Join us as we celebrate our students, their impact on the community and the compassion that connects them!

A fundraising campaign for Louisville Youth Philanthropy Council

This program year looked a bit different, but 33 students representing 12 different schools in Jefferson, Oldham and Bullitt Counties spent 16 Saturdays learning virtually about the world of philanthropy and how to make positive impacts in the community.  Our student teams developed their own missions, researched organizations that could fulfill their missions, interviewed organizational representatives, went on site visits and create proposal selection criteria to allow them to determine as a team how to grant $5,000.  Along the way they met and engaged with local community leaders and developed leadership skills.
