Introducing Global Youth Fund
Global Youth Fund's mission is to invest in young people's solutions for our changing planet.
Through global dialogue and peer-to-peer learning, we help youth identify and implement the best ideas for creating positive change.
Our three programs for youth are Changemakers, The Ideas Bank , and the This I Believe essay project.
Changemakers
Changemakers
GYF's core program, Changemakers helps today's youth (ages 13-25) become effective leaders in the 21st century. Every year, participants form chapters at their schools and use GYF's democratic process to design and choose a campaign or project to support.
Chapter leaders receive one-on-one mentoring from GYF and learn to lead by helping others lead. Learn More.
