Your Gift Builds Futures

Too many young people graduate without the financial knowledge or career experience needed to thrive. In our region, students face rising costs and limited exposure to living-wage career pathways. Without hands-on training and real-world skills, opportunity can feel out of reach.

Youthentity changes that. Through Career Academies, financial literacy, Career Expo, and Youthentity Works, students earn industry certifications, college credit, and practical experience before graduation. We are training local youth for local jobs and strengthening the workforce of the Roaring Fork Valley.

Your support powers programs like:

  • Career Academies that provide industry certifications and college credit in high-demand industries

  • Career Expo, connecting 1,700+ students annually with 85+ local employers and over 600 career pathways

  • I Am Financial Knowledge, middle school students statewide gain measurable skills in financial literacy

  • Youthentity Works, our student-led retail venture building entrepreneurial skills

When you give, you are not simply making a donation. You are investing in a young person’s first certification, first paycheck, first professional connection. You are strengthening our local workforce and ensuring students graduate with confidence and direction.

Your generosity turns potential into opportunity. Together, we are training local youth for local jobs and building a stronger future for our community.
