This page has been created as a go-to spot for everything you'll need throughout the year as a Youth in Philanthropy student or advisor. Here, you'll find any follow-up "homework" after meetings (like your pre-test, sample needs assessments, report templates, and grant application examples) along with important program updates and logistics. By your request, we're working towards a paperless program, so bookmark and think of this page as your digital binder to help you stay connected and on track all year long.
