Youth Sports
Combining physical activity, play, and collaboration, sports are a meaningful way to build social and emotional skills like teamwork, empathy, and problem solving. We support youth sports initiatives that promote these foundational skills, broaden the definition of winning, and prepare youth to thrive.
Social and Emotional Learning
When youth build skills like empathy, collaboration, and teamwork, they do better in the classroom and in life. This program supports organizations that create access to high-quality social and emotional learning experiences.
Tech and Society
Today’s youth are growing up in a world that’s more connected by the day. This new reality surfaces both unprecedented challenges and limitless potential. This program supports solutions that help youth build healthy relationships with technology and each other.
Catalyst Awards
Each year, our staff and board nominate several organizations to receive Catalyst Awards: one-time contributions made as part of our year-end giving. These organizations typically work on issues beyond our primary program areas. What unites them is their distinct and promising approaches to chronic social problems.
Past Work
We’re privileged to have worked with dozens of exemplary organizations who prepare youth to thrive. Read more about our past programs, grant partners, and Challenges.
