the impact circle

yjc’s Monthly Giving Program

The YJC Impact Circle is a group of stand-out youth advocates who are making a powerful impact by donating to Youth Job Center on a monthly basis. We’d love to welcome you to the circle!

Why become a member of the YJC Impact Circle?

  • Ease and flexibility

    • Set up your monthly donation, and you’re all set! No need to remember to donate or do anything further. You’ll get an emailed receipt each month, and you can reach out at any time to change your donation amount, pause donations, or cancel.

  • Budget-friendliness and ongoing impact

    • Monthly donations allow you to choose an amount that works for your monthly budget, reaping the double benefits of not having to donate in one large lump sum and spreading your impact out all throughout the year. (As an added bonus, monthly donations help us predict and plan our own budget!)

  • Opportunity to make a difference

    • Monthly donations as low as $5 help sustain the programs that help young people get a foot in the door and a seat at the table.

YJC’s services are free to youth and free to employers. Funding for our programs and services comes from federal and state grants, private and corporate philanthropic foundations, special events, community partners, and generous individuals—like you! Your support of YJC ensures that everyone finds success in the workplace and in life.
