Support Youth in Focus

Thanks to the support of generous donors such as you, Youth in Focus has built a community that has helped over 2,000 disadvantaged young people—through the power of photography—to experience their world in new ways and make positive changes in their lives.

We provide:

• a safe, creative space—during critical after-school hours—where our students can develop a strong sense of themselves and build confidence for making positive choices
• a high-quality, intensive, sequential arts education for youth who would otherwise have limited access to such an experience
• encouragement that helps our students develop and value their creative voice

Please make your tax-deductible* gift of $25, $100, $500 or more, by clicking the button below. We also welcome gifts of stock (you'll save on capital gains tax). Please contact Executive Director Bob Perkins at 206.407.2122 or bobp@youthinfocus.org for information about donating stock.

For those who give $500 or more, we are excited to offer a free coffee-table book of student work, Youth in Focus Doublexposure 2007, only while supplies last. This book contains 29 student images offered at the 2007 Youth in Focus auction. You can preview this work in our gallery.

If you have any questions, send e-mail to yif@youthinfocus.org
