Deliver Youth Economic Opportunity
We work with leading funders to connect youth to skill-building and pathways to employment.
Partnering with foundations to achieve their impact goals.
Private foundations fund IYF because we bring deep expertise in helping young people build the skills, connections, and opportunities they need to thrive economically and shape their own futures. Foundations can partner with IYF to address complex youth challenges while seeing their investment translated into measurable, locally grounded impact.
