Our 2023 Impact Report is Here
SERVING THE SHENANDOAH VALLEY THROUGH SERVICE, LEADERSHIP, AND EMPOWERMENT
We come alongside our region’s youth to support them in becoming individuals who contribute to their communities, lead successful lives, and achieve future aspirations.
A Reimagined Student Union

Our Service programs support our community in both body and spirit.
We build up students as leaders through our YES Program.

The Youth Empowered for Success Leadership program works with children in our local school systems to build character, teach financial literacy, and assist in career and post-secondary planning.
Our annual YES conference brings students from across the Shenandoah Valley to share in presentations from world-class mentors that they can use to succeed in their personal lives, academics and future careers.

Empowerment is about sharing knowledge and community building.
These initiatives uplift our students and the community at large. Ranging from community days at the baseball stadium, to planning nights supporting our upcoming juniors and seniors, to teacher appreciation events throughout the school year.
